Beams comfortably, top 15 midfielder when fit - AA and dual best and fairest winner while Martin is neither
Would need a Richmond supporter to clarify but I would have classed Dustin Martin to be a midfielder with large stints in the forward line while Beams is your stock standard bonafide midfielder - yet they both average the same amount of goals and goal assists.
Stats wise, the ones that stand out are the goals, clearances and clangers of which the later two favour Beams heavily and the first is relatively even though I would argue Martin spends more time forward of the ball. Does Martin have an intangible quality that makes him better than Beams?
