This bloke is EXACTLY what you want your playing group to be......true heart and soul club man. His commitment to the MFC is blood and guts stuff. Dare I say 'Spiritual Leader'?

wow, I knew the basics of the story - but boy oh boy...this is just great.

Very good article... my favourite line was the last about his dream as a child being to play just one game with the Dees. If he, Jones and Green can all fire at the same time over the next four weeks, the effect on the rest of the playing group would have to put us in with a fair chance of taking one or two of those games.

Easily one of my favourite players, a fantastic leader who never takes a backward step. I can definitely see him becoming our next captain.

How many kids get to grow up and not only play in the AFL, but actually play for the club they followed all their lives? Beamer is living the dream, and making a great fist of it. I am thrilled for him. Great article.

Thats the sort of Passion for the club that was lost at some point after Smith & Barassi had gone.

The blues grew, and The saints moved house, the Shinboners shone, & the Hawks flew.

Now, Matthews left to the Pies,,, then Northward to aLion with Brisbane AFL. A passionate tradition Grew.

This Love for the Club is in need of Nurturing. Not a love to pull at the jumper. A love to wear the jumper with pride and commitment, to go wear Saints fear to tread. To put oneself in harms way. Commitment!

We saw a player start to do this over the last couple of years & now this year, Pull out of these acts.

Beamer is a True Red'n'Blue warrior.

"For me the next 4 weeks will tell alot about who our captain is next year."

Hadn't thought about things in that way, but you're right I guess, we will see who has the leadership qualities over the next four.

The MFC can win any of the games in the next 4 weeks....That is if Beamer's words & inspiration rub off.

I am really looking forward to the next month....How much passion and commitment is on our list?

2011 destiny is in our own hands....win and progress. Lose and fall away.

Bring it on.

A leader, absolutely. An individual that starts things, anything, and motivates others to follow. His idea of handing out Norm Smith and Barrasi books and setting the tone regards this great clubs history is truly inspirational.

Struth had a heart attack, " Tom Resigns" then realised it was Tom Re-signs ! :wub:

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
