night at Crown on Tuesday.
For Malthouse it is the second time he has won the award after taking home the honour in its inaugural year in 1991.
While for Swan, the star midfielder won his first AFLCA award comfortably, 26 votes in front of Luke Hodge (Hawthorn) with Joel Selwood in third position.
Each senior coach voted on a 5,4,3,2,1 basis after each home and away game this season.
Swan's teammate Dayne Beams just missed out on the best young player award with Fremantle's Stephen Hill narrowly winning.
