when rance is no longer a regular in the team we shall speak again

if he is so damn awesome why did we target chaplin!!!!

Maybe just maybe we went after Chaplin because outside of Rance and Grimes (who's been injured alot the last 2 years) we had no other KPP backs ready to go

PS: Rance is a fullback, not a HBF. He's there to stop blokes, not to win prizes on the Sunday Footy Show.

Cause he can't beat everyone by himself. I think you will find with Grimes Astburu Griff Chaplin.

Alex will start to play on lesser forwards and dominate the back line.

In regards to this thread. If you look back over the flag winning teams last 10/20 Yeats they have been some average key backs.

Think Astbury may go forward at some stage.

Maybe just maybe we went after Chaplin because outside of Rance and Grimes (who's been injured alot the last 2 years) we had no other KPP backs ready to go

wp, u r an astute footy watcher and judge, you know deep down rance is not a premiership fb, and his position is not guaranteed due to his disposal and decision making

kpp griffiths astbury chaplin grimes all have better skills than rance, cant have them all in
