Collingwood fans want him to be traded to us interestingly..

Who told you that? doubt it.

Can't see why Beams is Clark 2.0. Different person, different brain, different personal circumstances.

I'm all for learning from the past, but the only thing to learn from that particular past is that Clark is a [censored]. The rest is irrelevant.

Please don't apply common sense, it gets in the way of my emotions.

The only reason would be because they'd want our pick 3 then ahha

"The Dad thing for Beams is indeed crap (to an extent). Didak is a close mate of Beams, and as I've previously mentioned some weeks ago I was told by a mate who's handling the sale of Didak's house in Hawthorn (I've done the advertising for the ppty - beautiful SF house) Beams hates Buckley and wanted out. It was stated by Didak that he'd go to another Melbourne based club or even Port. He just wanted out. Brisbane was the logical fit.

But I have to say this, if anyone equates Beams to the Clark situation and change of initial destinations, they're a true dullard who hasn't the sense to differentiate between a burqa and a habit. How one becomes the other is truly beyond me, but I know that's how simpletons think."

Beams, Brayshaw, Stretch, Lamumba, Frost, Garlett.... and trading out a couple of the "scarred" players (I trust in whoever Roos has identified) for high picks/established mids... feeling pretty good about the trade period now.

And steady improvement next year could see us land Danger as a free agent for zilch.

That makes absolutely no sense. Midfielders. We need midfielders.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love Cameron, but midfield is priority one.

Funny, who doesn't hate Bucks?

I'd struggle to even give up pick 23 for Beams

Use the higher draft picks to get in good young talent that will be at least 6-10 year players for the club.

Trade and draft for the older experienced guys on the cheap like we have been doing (Moneyball)

Last time we traded with the Pies we gave up way to much to get Dawes - I hope they don't make the same mistake again.

Classic Hannabal. Who else imparts info while slapping "dullards" & "simpletons?

Not interested in a genuine A-GRADE mid with 8 years of footy left in him? Ok.

I struggle to see how we could satisfy Collingwood when they are unwilling to take what I think is overs from Brisbane, being picks 5 and 25.

When it is reported the pies wanted pick 5, 21 & 25 I laughed.

No way in the world is Beams worth that.

And worst of all, if find it really hard supporting my team if we had that human stain on our list.

I feel sick about the prospect.

It'd make me want to stop following the club for the time he is there, and I wouldn't be able to bring myself to renew my membership.

Some people might not be the same, but I just couldn't do it on principle.

I try to be a realist, and fortunately I remain blissfully ignorant about other players I have loved in the past.

But he brings about too much distaste for mine.

It would make me wonder about the no [censored] policy. Mind you, I'm basing that on little real evidence. maybe you know more than I.

Is Beams really that bad a bloke?

Yes, he may have had some off-field issues at Collingwood, but as far as I know he's doesn't have a criminal record and has never been suspended on-field.

I'll happily offer pick 3 and 12 for Beams and 48.

I'll take an elite goal-kicking midfield to go with Jones and Tyson thanks.

I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up at GWS to be with his best mate Shaw.

Would it be out of order to try to reunite both Beams boys at the club and bring dad to Melbourne?

I think they'd probably prefer to stay in their home town, especially if the dad is sick as reported.

Probably what any family would do in that situation.

You know what? I've heard some horrible stuff about him, but I also worry that subconsciously I just hate him because of those God awful tattoos. I don't mind a good tough sticker, but he looks horrible.

But, I try to be objective and I think I just really don't like the type of person he is.

Just me, I guess.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
