[1] He also had some stand-out finals performances this year, including baulking an opponent in the right forward pocket and taking on a second defender to score a goal, and a memorable blind turn against Carlton.
[2] Schwarz was renowned for his strong marking, agility and athleticism, until he suffered numerous knee injuries, playing only two games in 1995 and missing the entire 1996 season.
He capped his effort by winning the club's best and fairest in 1999 and passing the 100-game mark—something that was unthinkable a few years earlier when knee injuries left his career in tatters.

In 2018, Schwarz joined Macquarie sports radio alongside Mark Allen to host the drive slot after their dismissals from SEN. On 1 November 2019, the pair concluded their term at MSR as the station's entire line-up was axed.
