2009 Player Review - # 22 Brent Moloney

Featured Replies

Posted
Brent Moloney – He had a really consistent year and stood up. 'Beamer' was actually omitted at one stage last year but came back and played some really good games before being injured. He was really determined over summer and didn't miss a session, which really showed in his game. He is physical, loves a contest and was our leading clearance player. The guys love playing with him too, because he brings some energy to the team. He is part of our leadership group and does a great job with our younger players – Sean Wellman on Melbournefc.com.au
 

Best year so far from beamer should go top 5 in B&F.

Probably top 3 in most improved this year as well.

Showing signs of great leadership especially on field.

Expect further development to an elite level next year

I think people forget that in 2005 he came 4th in the Bluey in his first year at the club.

Fantastic to see him back in the R&B, should be better now that there is some more speed around him.

We all know what I am refering to...

As an aside, his handballing improved out of sight this year. Very important considering our gameplan.

Indeed.

Yeah, Blease will be pretty exciting..!

;)


Good to see him fit and firing. Living the dream Brent.

It's been good to see Beamer on the park this year.

shown some on field leadership, potental captain.

Not only a consistent year, but deserves the bluey IMO.

Hard at it, good disposal all year and showed us just how good he can be.

nothing but a big tick for this year and can see him producing this year in year out in the future, injury permitting.

 

Beamer's starting to get backinto the swing of things. He can still improve and I think he will ( given he gets a good and non interupted preseason )

ought to enjoy his new midfield company. Look forward to a blinder of an '010 from him :)

Would love for Beamer to be Captain. Would be a great story. Passionate Dees supporter as a kid grows into the Captain of the Melbourne Football club. Leading clearance player with about 90 clearances for the year, And got 21 games under his belt in 2009. The thing I love most about Beamer he uses it well by hand with, big,long handballs that can set up play, and his massive long right boot. His decision making improved almost every week. He`ll give you 100% every week, week in & week out, and wins his fair share of the footy. Love him, Absolutely love him. Should continue next year without any injury interruptions.


Consistent year for Beamer, I'm delighted for him. Will be important next year for him to play just as many games as this season and help blood the younger brigade by showing the way in and under.

Too much information.

I think you mean not enough information.

Consistent and always hard working. Disposal and decision-making seemed to improve as the year progressed. Great that he's been injury free. Back close to his best and seems to be thriving on increased leadership responsibility. A good year Beamer. Looking forward to further progress in 2010.


I think you mean not enough information.

You thought wrong...

Moloney for mine had the most notable change in his game style this year and should be highly commended for the changes he has made. He moved from a "get ball kick ball" player to really improving his inside game and taking the better option in most cases. Can see him being an important mature body to protect any new mids who debut in 2010.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
