Ferminal said:They actually have an AGR contender in him, instead of sending Gesink pretending he will get a result.
And Nordhaug.RHRH19861986 said:Exactly.
Van den Broeck, though not really doing that much worse than Gesink in the Ardennes, now realized that they are not suited 100% to him. I think Gesink will come to that point, too.
Slagter and Martens will be Blanco´s cards to play in Amstel.

And Mollema. Forgot about him as well.RHRH19861986 said:Right, sorry, I forgot he joined them.
They, however, will want to build a Dutch leader, especially for AGR, anyways.

Michel Kreder has never been anywhere near the front of a biggish race. He doesn't have the engine.RHRH19861986 said:Anyways, I think none of all them we´ve mentioned has the characteristics of an Erik Dekker; they are rather GC hopefuls. Maybe Blanco (or how they are called after 2013) will have to sign Kreder (the one who won two stages in Tour Med last year) one day, provided he continues to develop as Vaughters is predicting.
