Ben Beams

He did, however, make an appearance in the Melbourne Grand Final team of that year when Cameron Bruce was forced to withdraw on the day of the game due to injury.

Beams appeared in the first two games of the 2001 season, but found himself a casualty of the Demons alarming drop in form which took them from 2nd in 2000 to 11th a year later.

He appeared a total of five times during the year for four goals and was subsequently delisted at the end of the season.

Beams then moved to the Victorian Football League to play for the Tasmanian Devils, back in his home state.

In 2011 he was announced the coach of the Glenorchy Football Club for the 2012 Tasmanian State League season.
