Anyone think Barlow can average enough at the Suns? Surely he stays in the mids and drifts forward.

No to many goods mids this year to risk him

Would be a lock if he was a forward still but no chance I'd touch him in the mids

would not surprise me to see him score 110 plus.   But not a starter for me.   Great pickup for Suns though.

Would take huge balls to start him, and i can't see him going 110+ myself, but wouldn't be surprised if he did either.

He was in my first team draft until i read Eade saying Barlow will start on the forward flank just like he did the previous years at Freo.
If he was in the guts no if's or buts i think i would take the chance.

Just teasing in JLT.

When he starts and plays in the midfield he generally tonnes up. When he plays forward, his scoring goes to shower. GC has a much more sorted forward line than Freo and Barlow will automatically be the #1 inside midfielder at the Suns.

I guess I've got a huge sack because he's a lock for me. Can see him being easily good enough for M7-M8 at the least.

agree we wil see him in guts at GCS.   Would be ok m7/8.    I am paying up front for the best and proven guys.    Post round 9 will take another look at Barlow

Loved Barlow ever since his debut season, but the suns worrys me with how they are going to play this season and the early bye, If he dominates the first couple of months then he is defiantly an upgrade target

This is one reason why not considering from Rd 1. Unlike the normal bye Rds where best 18 on field count Rd 9 appears to be a regular rd and prefer not to have more than 1 Port or Sun player missing.

Was considering him until I realised how much he cost. And now he's not a forward either. Think there's better options.
