Mixing in with the Magpie Army at Collingwood's training session on Thursday morning was a familiar face.
Complete with a moonboot on his right leg, Dane Swan was a welcome sight at the Holden Centre as he mixed with teammates, coaches and supporters for the first time since breaking his leg in round one.
Swan chatted to President Eddie McGuire and watched his teammates train as the Magpies prepare to take on Essendon at the MCG on Anzac Day.

The MCG in the back of his mind? Neil Balme this week told Collingwood Media the Pies would "love to see him back in the side".
Day made. A young fan gets a signature from the great man.
