Barnzy said:He's been a good player for a couple of years now. This year he's just exploded and become a top 10 player in the AFL. He deserves that money no doubt. I would offer him 600k for 4 years but it won't happen sadly.
Beam's has had a very good season, no doubt, but I reckon I would struggle to have him nudge out any of Cox, Hodge, Franklin, Goodes, Selwood, Ablett, Nick Riewoldt, Pendlebury, Swan, Pavlich, Judd, Murphy or Thompson. Even our own Deledio, Cotchin and Riewoldt could be judged ahead of Beams.
Half a season of good footy doesn't caterpault anyone into the leagues absolute elite.
