Steve Morris was our best defender this year and Grimes was better than Rance when he was on the park. :thumbsup

Yet Alex still finished 6th in the B&F. Underrated by many 'supporters'. Not the coaching staff though.

Grimes would have been top 4 if he played all year. He averaged as many votes per game as any other player bar Cotch IIRC

and lol at people not being considered supporters because they don't think Rance is the best full back in the comp.

Who said he's the best FB in the comp?

FWIW Grimes has missed a season of footy the past 2 years. Promising player absolutely but wouldn't be hanging my hat on that one. As for Morris..well he's not a key back is he.

Rance plays at another level when Grimes is there. If Grimes had to play without Rance, he may struggle a little as well. Both extremely important to the other, need them both on field for us. Add Chaplin to them and if we don't have any injuries between the 3 . . . well watch out  :shh

You said Rance has been our best defender for two years. Steven Morris = a defender and our best one this year. Funny how small forwards no longer destroy us...yet we still need a monster full back apparently because Rance isn't good enough to take the best forwards in the comp. There's no shame in that. Rance is alright, he has a crack but let's not talk him up as if he's something special.

I think some 'supporters' think Rance is better than he actually is. ;) ;D

Nah I don't think so. Grimesy is a very good defender one on one. Just a very good player overall, IMO. For a kid that's had the injuries he's had (and is still young) he's been bloody good. Chaplin will be a reasonable upgrade on Posty

Rance needs to quit playing club celebrity and spend more time thinking about the deficiency in his game that is kicking.

Enough of the in house video interviews and striking poses at training when he senses cameras on the boundary.

I'm riding this prick in 2013, with a broken glass.

ps- Alex- give up the role of club comedian.
You're not that funny.

Not real keen on getting my posts snipped for no reason. I agree with that comedian stuff oxx. and I'll say this again, when is Rance coming out of the closet? There is no law against that comment. surely...

this reminds me of carogate in 2010.

Just got engaged, so I doubt it'll be anytime soon.   :thumbsup
