I've been really impressed with Beamer over the last few weeks. Once he returns from injury he should really be included in the leadership group. He reminds me a lot of Todd Viney.

I think that he has really come on and would make a great leader. In the absence of Neitz and others he has really taken it upon himself to set an agressive tone. I would like the poor bugger to get through a season unscathed and show some consistency in his performances. If he can do this I am sure he will be given a position of leadership.

Season over for Beamer. The leadership team will be overhauled for 2009. He can be considered then. But I dont think he will make it.

Beamer really needs to show that he can comply with the game plan requirements. His enthusiasm is great but he needs to constantly think about what he is doing. His default mechanism to bang it long clearly is indiscriminate does not impress Bailey and he needs to sharpen that.

At least another season away from consideration if at all

Don't be silly. He was in good form before this injury and will be only 25 next season so he isn't THAT old.

His work in packs this year had been top notch.

Can someone fined out how many games he has play for us

now, an dyears I think Its 4. Why did Geelong have to let him go?

the bloke can play and will be around for some time. he is desperate, is teachable, shows leadership and gets the footy. he has had OP and he has had a bad run. shoulders can happen to anyone, especially ball players.

Nah lets get rid of him for putting his body on the line for the MFC.

On the ground YES

off the field and at training don't know what hes like does anyone?

I've met Beamer a few times, seems a real genuine kinda bloke. Is very vocal about his love for the club, and from all reports works as hard as anyone on the track, and harder than anyone in recovery (which unfortunately, he's spent most of his time in during his career). I've seen him at training first hand on a few occasions as well, and he's very vocal and always involved. Along with his hard-at-it, in-your-face attitude in the middle, and a strong imposing body, he has attributes that could translate well to leadership. He'll never ever shirk from a contest, and is guaranteed to put his body on the line and head over the footy every week. Like Viney, Moloney's footskills haven't been of the greatest standard of late, but it never stopped guys like Viney from leading by example. But unlike Viney, whose errant kicking was more brought about by poor technique, Brent has a lovely, penetrating kicking action, and hence more scope for improvement.

Much like Rivers, injury has stopped him from being the consistently good player he has shown he's capable of being. He's got a dodgy shoulder and dodgy groin, and just 25 games in last 3 seasons is not a good result at all. The only thing stopping him from becoming a very good player at AFL level thus far is his body. Until he can at least get some continuity over a couple of seasons, only then can he be considered for a leadership role IMO. No use being a leader if you're not in the team (due to injury).

Hopefully they manage his OP well, so it clears up completely, during his time out with this current shoulder injury. I really hope he can get back, and once back, stay in and play consistently good footy. The footy gods haven't been kind to Beamer so far.

Best of luck to him in his current recovery.

What's with everyone suddenly giving up on the careers of so many Melbourne players?

Recently I've heard that Grimes, Whelan, Moloney and Rivers may never play again.

FFS people.

some dont have the ticker to wait for the rebuild and panic. fortunately our coach is showing a bit more nerve.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
