Bombers were just as bad but difference is we will win this game. They didn't. :thumbsup

Nahas has to go but Rance and Foley no way.

umadbro?

Get a clue.

Rance had a few minutes there that he would to take back.
Nahas clearly does not want to be there.
Foley, can't expect too much this early from an absence as long as his. Glad to see him get some miles into his legs.

Bombers lost to lions yesterday mate, take a chill pill

There should be some sort of breathalyzer that wont allow you on the forum if you are over the limit.
-
for water?
pull ur head out of the sand
-
Agree on Nahas.
Rance i,ll play to the end of the year to keep his trade price up.{Rance for Frawley would do me}.Sick of Rances brain fades.
Not sure what your on about Foley.{Must have refused an autograph id say}
-
Hard to get motivated against poor opposition.....the test will be next week.....I'll keep my powder dry 'till then.
-
Nahas - gorn, gawn gonski, gone!
Rance - appallingly embarrassing when Dawes who is underdone is giving him a bath.
Foley - Yeah he was fumbly and had no impact but settle down, 2nd game back give him a chance.
-
Nahas - gorn, gawn gonski, gone!
Rance - appallingly embarrassing when Dawes who is underdone is giving him a bath.
Foley - Yeah he was fumbly and had no impact but settle down, 2nd game back give him a chance.
Dawes marked on the lead a few time but he certainly didn't give Rance a bath. Nahas on the other hand should not be played for the rest of the year. Playing for himself = not good enough!

first half was embarrassing, Rance couldnt go with him and got done point blank 5-6 times. He wouldve had 3 early but for Davey seagulling a cheapie in the square. Ran out of puff after halftime so Rance came back into it, but worrying signs and Im a Rance fan!
-
Foley 2nd game back not good enough.. he ain't ready or good enough so why play him
next week u will.say it's just his 3rd game back blah blah blah
and rance.. has been beaten every game this year... every game he has been panced
Hardwick is a fhead cos he keeps him in the team.
8 Weeks he has been shut ffs

Get a grip mate. We won by 5 goals played poorly and had double the scoring shots with 50% conversion rate.
Mediocrity would have lost to a side like Melbourne.
Our leaders were a bit flat and Ellis and Vlastiun shined. Have a beer mate and relax on a Sunday night.

So many lulz

Batch was on him for the first 20 mins which was not a good match up for us and Rance was moved onto him during the first quarter. Agree it wasn't Rances best game but played the game out and took a few great marks deep which was important. We need another tall defender so Rance can play 3rd tall IMO.
-
we should get the other tall back this week...Grimes
-
don't drink Beer
and all good teams gain huge percentage against the demons and shut teams. except us
gws and gold coast would have beaten us today

Any chance this thread could be stickied, it feels like every week I am reading a new hate thread on these guys
-
Rance: He has no confidence deep in defence and he should be playing CHB were he is less venerable.
Foley: 1st full match of the year.
Nahas: White was more of an i fluence then him today. Out Nahas, In White.
McGuane: Horrible today! He should spend time at Coburg I would say!

he meant in the starting line up not sub
white in 40 min of footy had more influence than rance foley and nahas combined

So does he mean Nana is sub or what, if he is out let's put him right out and down to the burghers
-
Nahas is gawn.
Foley was always going to have a better week in his first game back after a long absence. Will be better for the run.
Rance does a great thing then a terrible thing then another terrible thing. Confidence is shot needs to get back to basics and play within his limitations to get the mojo back.
-
Can't play King and Nahas.
Can't play King, Nahas and White.
Good teams will crush us.

Agreed King is first choice and White as a sub like in Perth v Freo to add pace on a big ground.
Nahas is a shadow of the player he was in 2011.
-
King is critical to our forward line structure at present and was one of our best today.
-
have a lot of time for nathan foley and it will take a bit of time with the amount of footy hes missed. no choice but continue to play him especially with tuck injured.
rance well if we are serious and some one has performed at coburg it is time to act. hes bloody poor.and has been for a long time.some things are easy to see but its amazing how many refuse to.
nahas well hes an unskilled small plodder always has been.
-
Thread needs more armchair vitriol.
-
You have to just laugh at Rance's name in this thread and the reasoning for it. At the game it was fairly obvious Batch was on him for both Dawes goals. But I thought nah I'll check the replay if I'm mistaken. Nope not mistaken. Just a clear vendetta against one player. He stuffed up 2 kicks 1 of which he made up for. Rest of his game was good. Last week he was very good as well with his kicking.
-
Any chance this thread could be stickied, it feels like every week I am reading a new hate thread on these guys
hate now thats a strong word little head in the sand chucky. its more like honest appraisal. the truth hurts sometimes i suppose.
the truth is he struggles to compete one on one. he falls over, regularly misjudges the ball in the air and regularly makes howlers with ball in hand. thats exactly what you dont want from your kpds.
if that is hate then yes im guilty of it, but lets face it, the reality is its nothing more than honesty.

Did give away a dumb free to Dawes and Dawes was huge for them. He made Rance look ordinary and I happen to think Dawes is the worst premiership player in any sport that has ever existed. How he got off Batch & Rance has me stuffed. Neither of those two should be playing on the oppositions number one forward. Maybe we need Chaplin and his over the top celebrations to take the big guys

Yer Rance should have had one kicked on him. Dawes had zero impact once Rance went on him. The issue is he should have been on him to start with. I agree the fist pumper should get the big guy but Dawes is only big when you look at him. Doesn't play big. He had to take Gawn because Rance wouldn't have been able to reach. Rance has had some stinkers this year. Didn't think yesterday was one of them in terms of his opponent beating him. Those 2 kicks though. :gobdrop :banghead :banghead
I wouldn't mind dipping our toes in the pool to see what it would take to get Frawley. Genuine FB. 1st rounder and a fringe player. Even a Grigg type. Grigg bent them over twice last year and their recruiting is poo. They may fall for it.
FB: Frawley
CHB: Chaplin
3rd tall: Rance
Defensive smalls/mediums: Grimes & Morris
Attacking Rebounder: Houli
-
Dawes daylight mcgaune
Dawes
Hogan
Watts
Garland
Clark
All significantly better :-X
-
I quite like him as a small, medium defender who is bigger and better in the air but also strong at ground level and quick enough to go with them. But yer he could play full back. Only problem is who plays the 2/3 of the year he misses. :whistle
-
Astbury?
-
Astbury?
He's definitely a possibility. Played well on Hurley in nob cup.

Haven't seen Astbury since, the fat poo truck might have eaten him

Wrong. Dawes split many a pack and brought the footy to the ground for their crappy crumbers. A top defender gets to the footy before Turtle Dawes
:rollin
-
Wrong. Rance had more marks that Dawes had touches aka got to the ball before the poo truck.
Dawes was rubbish. 5 clangers and 4 frees against. from 7 kicks. LMAO
-
Coach still cranky after we beat Poot. :laugh:
-
Dawes is such a poo truck hes had a good game coz he split a pack.
-
lol at the defenders of all things rance.
if we are smart we will be shopping him around in the hope of getting something decent for him. yes even i am optimistic at times but i dont think rival clubs are dumb enough to give up something decent for a hack.
things that regularly happen
gets beaten one on one, falls over at critical time and often, regularly misjudges the ball in the air, regularly gives away free kicks, regularly gets caught out of position because he lacks a footy brain and he regularly turns the ball over under pressure. he probably concedes more goals than any other defender in the entire comp.
yet all of these things are forgiven in a heart beat because hes courageous he pulls of the odd desperate spoil or has the odd despeate act. unbelievable.

Uncontested marks from switching the play have nothing to do with your key forward opponent who is playing a role in a zone. Dawes contributed 4 goals and had other score involvements. Rance didn't beat him at all. Dawes had an influence on the game and that is unacceptable as he's a poo player who gets poo delivery. Yet he kicks 2 (would have been 3 if not for Davey stealing his free), has several score involvements (Schulz had 11 of those on Rancer) takes 7 marks and let's not forget he's one of the worst players of all time.

No one said he had a good game. Learn how to life :fishing
-
What's 'learn how to life' meant to mean? Ok maybe I should have written 'Dawes is such a poo truck that he gets judged on how many packs he splits rather than actually getting the footy and not stuffing up.' ;D

Yes Dawes kicked 2 goals but this was on Batch in the first quarter not on Rance. Rance beat Dawes when he was moved to him which is clear if you watch the game closely.

So way back in 2013 he was not falling over at critical times, was not getting beaten one v one regularly, was not regularly misjudging the ball in the air, was not turning the ball over under pressure and was not regularly concedeing goals.
As i have regularly said i stand by everything i have said about Rance at the time. he was poor, and this thread shows i was not the only one who saw it.
if you want to revise history just to make yourself look good or join in a 6 yr old thread just to try and score a few cheap points go for it,Says more about you than anything you post.
i stand by what i said head in the sand chucky. He was poor for a good while before he became a good player. and my commentary reflected it.
At the risk of copping more vitriol i still think he struggles standing toe to toe in one v ones.

I think the issue is that you are far too quick to call players duds. Most need a few years of development before you should comment. Rance was like an unbridled stallion when he first started. He has now been an AA for the last 4 years. You are far too quick to criticise and that gets others off side. Also many of the suggested players you have named we should have recruited have ended up bring duds at other clubs. We all have hits and misses. Considering we won a flag and a minor premiership in the last two years our recruiting can't have been that bad when compared to other teams.

That’s not head in the sand stuff from you Y&BB, its more like honest appraisal. the truth hurts sometimes i suppose, the truth is that he’s a 5 time AA, AA captain, premiership full back and this current generations preeminent key position defender thats exactly what you dream of from your kpds.

Rance was recruited in 2007. this thread was bought up from 2013.Too quick i dont think so. A running commentary is just that a running commentary.
I left Rance alone in his early yrs and tend to NOT comment on players in their early yrs.
Simple fact is and no matter how much tiger supporters want to revise history Rance was poor early.Fact is most players arent great.

So he became a good player that doesnt mean he wasnt poor.

You dont need me to tell you whats wrong with his game its there for any idiot to see.

Yes he became a “good” player..... ::)

Rance was a fraction better than Oakley Nichols.
Luke McGuane was in a class of his own.
Rance is just a lucky flukey player who has been gifted games. :lol :lol :lol

gets beaten one on one, falls over at critical time and often, regularly misjudges the ball in the air, regularly gives away free kicks, regularly gets caught out of position because he lacks a footy brain and he regularly turns the ball over under pressure. he probably concedes more goals than any other defender in the entire comp.
yet all of these things are forgiven in a heart beat because hes courageous he pulls of the odd desperate spoil or has the odd despeate act. unbelievable.
This is probably the most wrong post ever
So way back in 2013 he was not falling over at critical times, was not getting beaten one v one regularly, was not regularly misjudging the ball in the air, was not turning the ball over under pressure and was not regularly concedeing goals.
As i have regularly said i stand by everything i have said about Rance at the time. he was poor, and this thread shows i was not the only one who saw it.
if you want to revise history just to make yourself look good or join in a 6 yr old thread just to try and score a few cheap points go for it,Says more about you than anything you post.
i stand by what i said head in the sand chucky. He was poor for a good while before he became a good player. and my commentary reflected it.
At the risk of copping more vitriol i still think he struggles standing toe to toe in one v ones.
I think the issue is that you are far too quick to call players duds. Most need a few years of development before you should comment. Rance was like an unbridled stallion when he first started. He has now been an AA for the last 4 years. You are far too quick to criticise and that gets others off side. Also many of the suggested players you have named we should have recruited have ended up bring duds at other clubs. We all have hits and misses. Considering we won a flag and a minor premiership in the last two years our recruiting can't have been that bad when compared to other teams.
Rance was recruited in 2007. this thread was bought up from 2013.Too quick i dont think so. A running commentary is just that a running commentary.
I left Rance alone in his early yrs and tend to NOT comment on players in their early yrs.
Simple fact is and no matter how much tiger supporters want to revise history Rance was poor early.Fact is most players arent great.
5 times consecutive AA with one of those captain but whose counting.......
So he became a good player that doesnt mean he wasnt poor.
Hey Claw, I'm still waiting for you to reply to my post about Jayden Short. Get onto it when you get the chance.
Cheers,

Why would i reply to a poster whose only intent is to poo stir.
You dont need me to tell you whats wrong with his game its there for any idiot to see.
Rance played his first senior game in 2009. By 2013, he was already a very good player. One on one he kept the best forwards honest. In round 19 he destroyed Buddy Franklin which helped us win the game. The next year he won his first AA.
Are you just making things up as you go along?

But imagine how good he could have been if we had traded him to Hawthorn all those years ago.
