Demonland 74,459 Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 Today sees Max Gawn take on Brent Moloney. You can either vote by going to our Facebook or Twitter pages or for convenience you can vote in the poll above. I will create a new thread each day and will merge the threads together once the voting day is complete. Can Beamer cause the upset of the century?

Almost impossible against Gawn; this is despite his value to the Team across several years - some games and efforts were terrific and thus worthy of praise and recognition. 2 Quote
Dr. Gonzo 24,468 Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 Moloney was good for a few years but he [censored] me by the end. Grab it in the middle and just smash it on the boot without looking. Gawn has already outdone him and should have a few years left hopefully Quote
Chook 15,070 Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 I dreamed last night that Max Gawn decided he would leave the Dees to go elsewhere. If Moloney hadn't done the exact same thing (in real life), I might have considered voting Moloney over Gawn just based on that alone. Reality hits, however, and I must vote Gawn. #KarmaIsABitch Quote
Forest Demon 4,681 Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 I watched the end of the “Miracle on Grass” between Brisbane and Geelong on fox footy the other day, and Moloney was massive in the last quarter. Kicked 2 or 3, and one straight out of the center was classic Moloney. Still....Gawn easily. 1 Quote
Pates 9,697 Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 Gawn easily, but I reckon Moloney could’ve been a great for us. I look back at the way the club shot itself in the foot in the Bailey/Neeld period and I can’t help but think about how many careers were adversely affected by it. 1 Quote
tiers 2,883 Posted April 14, 2020 Posted April 14, 2020 Max has been a demon for his whole career so far. All Australian and dominant at times. Brent was great for us but one dimensional - get it, kick it long. Might have been effective if the team was coached to take advantage but it didn't happen. Max by far. Quote
Lord Travis 10,819 Posted April 14, 2020 Posted April 14, 2020 Max is a gun and likable character. He’s a superstar of the game and hopefully he’ll retire a premiership captain. He obviously gets my vote. That said, I think Beamer is a tad underrated on here. When at his peak, he won a BnF and was basically the only competent midfielder we had. Even the likes of Nathan Jones were less capable and willing at the time. Beamer tried to lead at a time when we had no leadership and the club was a disgraceful mess. If he’d had better coaching and stability around him, I think he would’ve wound up far more accomplished and liked. I’ll always be grateful for his efforts, as he was the only one trying most weeks!

Beamer on his day was an animal and gets a tough wrap on here a lot of the time. 1 Quote
