Balta would be my pick. He’s like a younger version of Rance, but with a bigger kick. Probably doesn’t have Rance’s smarts, though.
Rance didn't have 'smarts" at 20 either.
He was delist material under Wallace

So do I. What was it Dimma called them? Alex Rance moments. My hope is Balta can learn. Be great to see him coming out of the backline and unloading with a big bomb.Still remember the early days when Rance didn’t seem to have smarts and he was often caught completely unawares of some bloke about to nail him.
But he grew out of that and went on to become a champ.

Lots of us saying the same thing about Soldo and Chol and a few other premiership heroes.Miller a mile off. Goes missing at VFL level, can't see how he ever makes an AFL standard player, let alone a good one
I hope they give Choi a crack at a key defender role. He has good hands and has great athleticism. Lacks some upper body strength but I hope they consider him.

Really? I'd choose Grimes over Broad every day of the week.
Wonder whether they’d consider supp list as a back up for grimes or VlasMoore has been delisted, no?
Chol could play on the tall lumbering forwards , like bris sec and third stringers , no problemChol not a defender for mine. We don't need a direct replacement as Rance wasn't in the premiership 22 anyway. It's depth we need, someone to step up when needed. Garthwaite and Balta are the two existing options for mine but really think we need to use the SSP to source another solid key defender (I noted Beasley in the Rance thread but I'm sure there are others around).
Sam Taylor will be a beauty , He would be a perfect replacement but is still contractedJust get on the phone to Sammy Taylor and or Alex Pearce and get on the phone everyday.
Balmey...Blair ......... get it done.
We have the cap space and will be able to offer Taylor a crapload more than hes on at Gee Whizz with their tight cap.
Exactly, he might not have touched it many times in the finals series , but either did his opponent and that's more important. Does no one remember the game on Hipwood in the 1st final.
Leppa taught Rance everything he knows apparently.
Balta should be next in line at the Leppitch School for Elite Defenders.
Miller a mile off. Goes missing at VFL level, can't see how he ever makes an AFL standard player, let alone a good one
coming into his 3rd yearApparently the club rate him though Bris. Have kept him on the list for a while now.
