Career highlights

Claye Beams (born 1 September 1991) is an Australian rules footballer who plays for the Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League (AFL).

He was selected by the Brisbane Lions as a priority Queensland rookie selection (pick 76 overall) in the 2009 Rookie Draft from AFLQ club Labrador. He had only joined the Labrador team a few months earlier after seeing his brother Dayne perform well for Collingwood in the AFL.[1]

On the back of strong performances in the Brisbane Lions reserves side throughout 2010 and his selection in the Queensland state side, Beams was officially elevated at the 2010 AFL Draft and will commence the 2011 AFL season on the Brisbane Lions senior list. He was injured for a couple of games during the early part of the season[2]

He is the younger brother of current Brisbane Lions teammate and former Collingwood premiership player Dayne Beams.[3]

AFL career

2011: Debut

Beams made his debut against Fremantle in Round 1 at the Gabba, with 13 disposals. He played five of the first seven games of the season before breaking his foot and did not play for the remainder of the year.[4]

2012

Beams played in the round 1 victory against Melbourne and was rewarded the round 1 nomination for the 2012 AFL Rising Star for tagging Brent Moloney out of the game, whilst still collecting 25 possessions himself.[5] He was the first Lion to be nominated since Jack Redden in 2010.
