The star key forward had a 2008 season to forget as he twice was suspended, for a total of eight matches, and broke a wrist. Regardless, he topped the Swans’ goalkicking (41) for a seventh consecutive season to equal the club record of Len Mortimer (1906-12). He also led the club for contested marks (47). The 2005 premiership co-captain will be hoping for less controversy and more games and goals in 2009.
