FOOTY ratbag Dane Swan has declared he has turned over a new leaf after a year of too much drama.

Swan hit the headlines after video footage of him was posted online without his consent in April and then he was nabbed for drink driving in September.

“I have turned over a new leaf, I am a good boy now,” Swan, dapper in a tailored black suit in the Birdcage, said.

Swan lost his licence for three months and was fined $484 after blowing 0.054.

“I probably shouldn’t have gotten behind the wheel, but I had had eight hours sleep and I thought I was OK,” he said.

“I thought I was unlucky to be honest.

“In hindsight it was obviously the wrong decision and I am not apologising to anyone because it has nothing to do with anyone else.

“I stuffed up and I will wear the consequences but I am not sorry to anyone.

“I will cop my whack and that is fair enough.”

Swan, a Footy Show regular this year, said he had no idea if he would be involved with Channel 9’s new footy offering next year.

“I got picked up for drink driving the day after it (the Grand Final Footy Show) and then I went away. I got back yesterday so I have no idea,” he said.
