Alex Rance

You're talking rubbish. Half the team commented on this Insta post from just a few weeks ago wishing Alex well. They'll be at Premiership reunions together for years to come whatever happens.


Agree TOO. He was also helping out at Grimes farm a few weeks ago, that was all over Insta too. If he's "burnt his bridges with the team", why are they still hanging out with him. Zips has no idea on this one.

He is on par with Brad Ottens when it comes to punt Rd.
 
Do you boo Brandon Ellis too?
Never Ellis is a legend
And loved by every person at punt Rd.
He was with Dusty and Cotchin 5 minutes after the Gc game.
The only X Richmond players i booed
Raines, Cloke, Powell, Ottens, Maxfield, Poole,
I booed cloke when he came back in 90
 
I

Im hitting the boundary with a huge
JUDAS sign.
And booooooing from siren to siren

So if he's a judas as you say, and walked out on the club and the players who now dislike him, why are they still hanging out with him??

Do you hang out with people you don't like or respect?
 
Balta has got the time still and development don't forget Rance took a while and he still wasn't a great one on one defender.
Sorry but in 2017-2018 Alex Rance was stats wise the best 1 on 1 defender in the AFL,from memory only loosing 1 on 1 about 18 percent of the time.

He's playing a practice match ,not a official game.

Who did those stats? Champion data?
Jenkins bent him over in 2017
Cox in 18
Walker in 17
Dixon in 18

And thats just 4 off the cuff
 
I choose to remember the Rancey that contributed so much to my greatest football memory in 55 years of sweating over the Tiges. I doubt that he will get back to his best, I think his athleticism was starting to wane in his last year with us.
Good luck to him.
I couldn't bring myself to boo Cloke or Raines, Billy Barrot, Bull Richardson and many others who went to other clubs but are always loved and remembered as Tigers.

Are we talking about the same Alex Rance?
Probably RFC’s greatest ever KP defender and in the same conversation for the history of the entire competition.
It’s actually a disgrace that some of our so called supporters on here are now denigrating his reputation and standing in the game.
And some are coming on here saying Balta will be better.
As I said previously, wishful thinking.
If that plays out, we’ve got the best of all time
