Nick's Collingwood Page - The 2004 Team

After being picked up late in the 2001 National Draft, Swan spent the whole of the 2002 season at Williamstown, gaining valuable experience.
2003 was much of the same for Swan, who broke through for three games midway through the year.
2004 was a real break through season for Swan, who played his first game against Brisbane in round three and never looked back. His composure and skill were valuable assets to the Pies defence as he cemented his place in the side. After a good showing against Carlton in round seven, Swan had a quiet patch midway through the year and was dropped for round 10.
