Nathan Charles Buckley (born 26 July 1972) is a former professional Australian rules football player, commentator and coach, best known for his time as captain of the Collingwood Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).

He is listed by journalist Mike Sheahan as one of the top 50 players of all time. Buckley won the inaugural Rising Star Award, then went on to become one of the game's elite. He won the prestigious Brownlow Medal in 2003 and was selected in the All-Australian Team team a total of seven times. He also captained the Australian international rules football team against Ireland.

In 2004 Buckley became an original inductee into the Collingwood hall of fame, captaining the club between 1999 and 2007, six time club best and fairest and named in the Collingwood Team of the Century. He retired at the conclusion of the 2007 AFL season and became a commentator for the Seven Network.

After months of speculation, the Collingwood Football Club signed Buckley as an assistant coach for seasons 2010 and 2011 and as senior coach in 2012 for three years.

Buckley (Welsh: Bwcle) is a town and community in Flintshire, located in north-east Wales. It is situated 2 miles (3.2 km) from the county town of Mold and is contiguous with the nearby villages of Ewloe, Alltami (which are both under the jurisdiction of Buckley town council) and Mynydd Isa. The town is located on the A549 road, with the larger A55 road passing nearby.

Buckley is the second largest town in Flintshire in terms of population. According to the 2001 Census, the community had a total population of 14,568.

Notable nearby landmarks include Ewloe Castle.

Buckley was an Anglo-Saxon location, with some of its houses later recorded in the Norman Domesday Book of the 11th century. However, the first documented evidence of its existence dates from 1294 when it was described as the pasturage of the Manor of Ewloe, spelled as "Bokkeley".

The name Buckley may derive from the Old English bok lee, meaning meadow, or field. The likely meaning of the name was "clearing in a beech wood" (with boc meaning beech tree and ley meaning wood, glade or clearing). The name could also have been construed from bucc, a buck or deer; or bwlch y clai, meaning clay hole.

Dane Swan (born 25 February 1984) is an Australian rules footballer for Collingwood in the Australian Football League.

Since 2007 Swan has emerged as one of the AFL's elite midfielders, winner of the prestigious Brownlow Medal in 2011 with a record tally of 34 votes. He has been selected in the All-Australian team three times and has an AFL Players Association Most Valuable Player award.

Swan has also proven to be a Collingwood great, having won the Best and Fairest Award three years running from 2008-2010.

Swan was born in Melbourne, Victoria to parents Billy and Deidre Swan. His father Billy Swan played 302 games with Port Melbourne and Williamstown from 1976–1993.

He grew up playing junior football for the Westmeadows Football Club in the Essendon District Football League, and attended St. Bernard's College in Essendon before playing his under 18 football with the Calder Cannons in the TAC Cup.

Swan's performances at the Calder Cannons were ordinary and he was perceived by some recruiters to be a larrikin with questionable kicking accuracy and work ethic, however Collingwood showed an interest in him as a potential late maturer in the mould of his father and took him at the relatively low draft pick (#58) in the 2001 AFL Draft.
