VB?

[aces-high]

Hey guys,
All the speculation this pre season has been about Scott Thompson and his easy/dream draw. Nathan Van Berlo finished 2011 in a huge way averaging 121.7 in the last 6 rounds. I think if he is used in the same role with the Crows improving he will be a much smarter pick. NVB could be a great unique option in 2012 and i feel those that take a risk will reap the rewards. :P Will any of you be taking Van Berlo in 2012?

I hear you mate, VB is having a great pre-season and is GUARANTEED to improve this season. whether that makes him a top 10 / mid keeper is the question but i am VERY tempted by him, i reckon this could be his year

So CW. Along with me and probably thousands of others you are entering the NAB cup with a team 150 players? Hahahah.

Im gonna take the punt with him over barlow :P might be the secret ingredient!!
But as u blokes are saying my squad has around 50 players trying to fit into 30 :/ hahaha
Im  pumped for 2012 though. Good luck fellas!!! And any competative leagues u know of with a free spot i am happy to fill the void. :P finished 1201st last year

[lolrocket]

if Bickley was coach, yes, probably ahead of Barlow. Will have to see how he does under Sanderson

Definitely VB over Scotty. On another thread I wrote about how Thompson needs 50 possies against GWS, GCS, or PA to score 120.

That is honestly my only problem with Thommo.

Good point!  ;)

Same can be said for Heppell. Slays a 30 possession games and just scrapes a ton. Things might change in 2012 though.

But that's (partly) the reason I'm going with Redden. Slays the tackles.  :)

[elephants]

Hmmmmm....

Save the 70k in VB over Thommo?

OR

Even Vince is a shadow of his former average. 138k less than Thommo and 62k less than VB. Has averaged 100 in his career unlike Van Berlo...?

Or go with Redden.  :P

[elephants]

Redden isn't exactly that cheap. 540k as opposed to Vince at 400k... Not really comparable.

True.

Vince has fallen off the wagon and I hope he has a good season as his potential too improve is huge.

Damn, no you've got me thinking about getting him.  ::)
