After an indifferent start to the year with inconsistency and injury, Vince showed signs of recapturing his best-and-fairest winning form of 2009 towards the end of last season, amassing a season-high 35 disposals against Richmond in round 23. The 26-year-old has enjoyed a solid pre-season and approaching 100 games (88) will be determined to take the next step in his football development.

David Noble: “Bernie played some exceptional footy in the last half of the year, and the reason why was because he worked his backside off doing extras. He knew he was a bit short, coming out of pre-season and made a call quite early in the year that he needed to get back to doing a bit of extra work behind the scenes. He did it really quietly and diligently and started to reap the rewards towards the end of the season. What he showed was the elite level he touched on when the won the best and fairest two years ago. He wasn't able to maintain it for as long as he did in 2009, but I think he's worked out the formula as to what he needs to do get those results.
