Beech made his SANFL debut for West Adelaide in 2008.[1] Beech is a strong-marking forward, who can also run through the midfield.[2] Over the course of his SANFL career for West Adelaide he played 129 games and kicked 148 goals, also applying for the AFL draft 8 times but never being drafted by any AFL club.[3] He began to gain notoriety in the 2014 season,[4] and trained with Adelaide for a week at the end of the season, hoping to be drafted by the club. Once again, he was overlooked.[5]

He also averaged 18 possessions, seven marks, six score involvements and four inside 50s across 22 SANFL games. Beech ranked No.1 in the SANFL for total marks and third for contested marks. After this, Beech was drafted in the second round of the 2016 AFL rookie draft. He was Adelaide's second pick in the draft.[6]
