Very proud of him. To overcome the scandals and the disappointment, he's done incredibly well.

Its funny you say that. Dal has always said he laughed at the photos. Maybe Rooy should have had the same attitude. Easier said than done though I suppose.

Good point... Seem to have gone in the opposite direction this year, the 2 Nicks...

How did Swan find the time to win a Brownlow, what in between getting drunk, bashing disabled cleaners and getting his body coloured in like the true bogan piece of sh*t he is? Dal Santo was robbed! Ironically by a piece of bogan filth from colonwood. Oh the irony!

Well done Dal. It gives me hope for years ahead if a saint can produce excellent brownlow vote polling form in such a disappointing year...

I know it doesn't belong here but congratulations to Dane Swan too. Deserving winner.

Guess it shows how good he is. With a record number of votes too, beating our own champ Harves.

Really I thought he should have won it last year too.

Stupid post...

Not a fan of Swan personally, but clearly a deserved winner and great player...

28 votes is a top effort by NDS.

Poor Juddy eh?

That close loss against the Weagles and such a disappointing brownlow poll :lol:

Congrats Dal. Was hoping for a top five finish. Did not expect a top two!

Also congrats to Swan. An absolute freak of a player.

You sound like a fair tool. He's a deserved winner.

Yeah he's great. Perfect, in fact. If he'd been a saints player he'd still be getting pilloried. BTW P66, I know we all make mistakes when we're young. I can't recall bashing a defenseless, disabled cleaner into semi-consciousness with my mates though. I had the misfortune to run into his sh*tman father a few times (professionally). Must say the Port Melbourne fruit doesn't fall far from the rotting tree it came from.

listen d**khead, he may not look the fittest player going around and may have a few too many tatts, but the boy CAN play.

Who else in the league has only 30 possies on a bad day?

And how many games did he get suspended for this year?

That's right, zip!

So perhaps he aint a meathead anymore.

Maybe grab a mirror.......

No idea why you only mentioned me but so be it. I can assure you he is very much a changed man. What he did was completely stupid and no I would do it either but people deserve another chance. One thing he has never been is a thug on the field.

Close, but not right. Andy D knows the top 8 leaders roughly 4 rounds ahead for the majority of the night. About halfway through the count, he then changes the order of the games to reflect the upcoming leaders he can see. With 6-8 rounds left, he only knows the top 8 leaders roughly 2 rounds ahead, and he will continue to leave the games with those leading players to be read out at the end of each round. The final round of voting isn't known to Andy D until 5 or less minutes prior to actually reading them out.

No I dont know the guy at all. Met him Boxing day at a function and he seemed OK if not a bit arrogant when I said good luck for next season he said we wont need it. Maybe he is right though. However one of my mates is best mates with his whole familey especially Billy, Swanny's dad, I have spoken to him about Swan plenty of times. Sorry if I know someone who knows him. I make up a lot of bulls*** but I never make up thinks about knowing people. You can believe what you like. I know I am telling the truth.
