STEVEN Baker has won an AFL Army Award nomination for his outstanding act of desperation against the Pies.

Baker applied a desperate smother on Dane Swan then powered forward, collected the loose ball and kicked it inside the Saints’ 50m arc.

Saints fans can watch Baker’s exceptional play and vote for him at www.afl.com.au/armydefence/home.aspx.

New to the 2007 season, the Army Award aims to recognise and reward the ‘one-percenters’ such as game-breaking smothers, tackles and shepherds.

At the end of the home and away season, the AFL All Australian Selection Committee will shortlist the 22 weekly winning acts to six nominations which will then be voted on by the public via afl.com.au. The All Australian selection committee will then endorse the winner.

In 2007, the AFL Army Award winner will receive a $10,000 Army Experience. The award will be officially presented at the 2007 Coca-Cola All Australian presentation dinner.
