That's probably about right. Rance is one of the best defenders in the AFL now , however I don't have much faith in these rankings after they named Houli as elite last year.

IMO Houli is the most underrated player in our side

Jack is pretty good
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

They're elite for their position, Rance is in the top 10% of defenders, not all players.

My list for elite tigers is:
Cotchin
Deledio
Reiwoldt (wouldn't be surprised if he plays off a half forward flank this year)

Potential elite players but not there because of age are:
Martin
Ellis
Conca
Vlastuin

Not a bad midfield rotation there

Loads of Bgraders (Rance, Houli etc)

Stripes, I don't believe that Houli is underrated. He is a good footsoldier Solid B grader. His limitations are one sided, his short kicking and occasionally short steps a hard contest. His strengths are his long kicking, his handballs (awesome) and his defensive work.

No but none are elite at this stage. Cotchin is a ball butcherer, Lids goes missing all the time and Martin is not consistent and is also a ball butcherer.

Ablett is elite

The ones who rate him are right though. The ones who don't are underrating him

well by that measure which is fine, there are no other elite players in the comp as ablett is on another level
