Recruit Van De Beek.  Claremont has been searching hard for a support ruck strength for captain-coach Graham Moss and they seem to have found it.  The arrival of Herman Van de Beek from Dandenong in the VFA was regarded as a significant recruiting coup. Van de Beek’s strength has given Moss added strength on the ball.
