Rance's first competitive outing of the year will be on Friday night when he represents the Flyers in the AFLX, with some supporters worried their team's players will be injured.
That possibility was discussed among Rance's new teammates, and while they want to win, it won't be at all costs.
"I think it's all common sense. We're not going to be dump tackling and going third man in and all that sort of stuff, because we know our priority is for our club, but I think you'll see the competitive juices come out," Rance said.
Fellow Tiger Jack Riewoldt will captain the Rampage despite a recent root canal, which Rance joked he would target.
"I'll be giving him a bit of chin music when I go for a few spoils," Rance said.
