Rance can't be a rebounder, too much of a gump
Tall enough for KP, 194cm

Rance poor kick, has been played up forward in pre season games and struggled
I thought his kicking was allright the other night, the more confidence he gets the better he will be. I am glad he is getting a few games under his belt as he has improved out of site allready this season.....

Chimp looked off the pace tonight. Possibly suffering from the heavy knock he got to the ribs last week.

Grigg had a shocker with the boot.

Nahas played his best game for the club and great to have the VC back :thumbsup

Hey mate, just wait til my man Mitchy farmer comes back. him and benny nase  :cheers Those guys can play, guy. cant wait

What about Rance JJ, what did you think?

thought Rance was okay.
he got too much uncontested possesion though.
Dont like backman zoning off and getting easy uncontested possesion.
problem with rance is this, i dont know if he is a key backman or a rebounding backman ala Chris Newman.
He doesnt have the height to be a permanent Key back person like Grimes and Mcgaune and his kicking is only average so he would be the last person you would want rebounding out of D 50.
Liked Houli game as a Defensive 6 player, used the ball well laterally and got distance

Rance is 193cm Jackstar - he's a FB that offers some run and has improved his 1 on 1 contesting - found a good balance on saturday night.

Rance according to the RFC site is 194cm
Grimes 193 cm & McGuane is 192cm

Yet somehow Grimes & McGuane have the height required, but Rance doesn't

funny that  :lol  whats also amusing is he's the only one that has a big strong body (which he's starting to learn how to use). Little things like bumps and chest to chest can give an insight into a persons core strength and i noticed when Clarke had a crack at Rance during the night, Rance absorbed the contact like it was coming from Nahas

also if rance does play on tall opposition forward, eg Cloke and Dawes, Brown etc. he just hasnt the leap to combat taller opponents.
