Well he did, not for winning the award but for personal reasons during his speech. Was a very moving moment. Nothing wrong with guys having a cry - he's a human, not a robot.

I reckon its gr8 that a bloke like Barry Hall has a cry up on stage. Can anyone tell us what he said when he accepted the awards? Did anyone tell him he'd also won the Troy Luff medal?
Barry Hall for captain!
Occupational hazards:
I don't eat animals since discovering this ability. I used to. But one day the lamb I was eating came through to me and ever since then I haven't been able to eat meat.

I spoke to him afterwards and told him. Said we'd be back to him when the players were back from their break with the award and organise it with the Club. He said thanks and that he was honoured.
Very good night and very emotional - Barry was very moved and it is good to see true feelings displayed.
We have high hopes for next year - great to hear we have Roos for four more years together with Myles Baron Hay and Andrew Ireland.
Building a great football organisation and club.
Gerard Healey life membership - hope he now can speak well of the Swans more often on his show.

He was thanking the support staff, in particular one (who's name I didn't catch) who Baz described as a "father figure" to him and that he had never had a father figure before. At was at this point that he became very emotional. I'm not sure if actual tears flowed but if not, he came very close.
Phil Mullins - the club welfare officer. Has been there for years and players have said similar things about him (though normally not in tears) year after year.
