This is why we never took Jay Van Berlo. Would be too confusing having two JVBs on our list.

Player statistics
Lead-up forward who accumulates marks and goals in unobtrusive fashion. Plenty of development in him. Plenty of clubs are interested.

Re: Rookie Draft Selection #32 - Jake von Bertouch
So you know that leadership, competitiveness, and all that is in the blood
Jake fairly dominated the U18s this year, including a hauls of 6 goals, 7 goals, 8 goals, and even an 11 goal match!
http://www.sportingpulse.com/team_i...190814394&client=1-3289-35010-103283-10110175
He was the third highest goal scorer in the U18s this season.
Didn't achieve much once being moved to the reserves for three matches though - only a solitary goal.

Re: Rookie Draft Selection #32 - Jake von Bertouch
I gather he is a bit of a project player?

Re: Rookie Draft Selection #32 - Jake von Bertouch
I'd suggest its likely due to his light frame, along with the step up from 18/s to Reserves being a rather big one. Will be spending a bit of time in the gym this summer I'd suggest, will be interesting to see how he goes. Was one I had my eye on throughout the drafting period.

Re: Rookie Draft Selection #32 - Jake von Bertouch
I think they will be looking to turn him from a leading FF to a genuine Cloke/Volt type running CHF. Has excellent endurance and a solid mark. His main problem is that he hasn't really torn a game apart before and can go missing. A bit of development in him and we could have a very good talent on our hands.

Re: Rookie Draft Selection #32 - Jake von Bertouch
I dunno, he has an 11 goal haul at U18 level, I don't know what your definition of "tearing a game apart" is, but that'd certainly classify under mine.

Re: Rookie Draft Selection #32 - Jake von Bertouch
Haha yeah fair call, but there are plenty of u18s heroes. For draftable kids, you want to be showing your stuff at reserves, at least. Its very easy for a player of his size to go from hero to zero moving up the ranks. He was talked about as a top 20 pick this time last year and has not gone on with it like recruiters would have hoped.

Re: Rookie Draft Selection #32 - Jake von Bertouch
Congrats Jake. Met him a few times as a friend of the family. Umpired a couple of his games at SANFL level too and he looks a player, will take a while to develop into an AFL footballer.

Is this kid an ex-basketballer? He seems like the type. Has some really nice composure in tight situations.
