Australian Football

Shane Beros joined Swan Districts from West Coast Amateurs and was a mainstay of the side over 11 seasons from 1998 to 2008. The highlight of his career to date came in 2003 when he became the most recent Swans player to win the Sandover Medal. Beros also counts Swan Medal wins in 2003, 2005 and 2006 among his football achievements. A tough, resolute footballer with a penchant for tackling hard, effectively and often, he is also a quick thinker who almost invariably uses the ball purposefully. Most commonly deployed as a rover, he also gives excellent value when playing out of a back pocket. Shane Beros made his interstate debut for Western Australia against South Australia in 2003 and was a regular selection thereafter.
