Why not it's ok for yarren Mckenzie

Living in Monaco for a few years vs playing with Hampson and grigg
Completely different scenarios. Rance doesn't suffer from depression.

If you want to get real idea of how good he is and how truly crap we are.....try and think of how many matches we would've won this year without Rance....

I can seriously only think of one - the first Essendon match.....and even that's 50/50...


EDIT: Maybe Freo as well.....though our best defender that night was the weather...

Only bloke who gave a stuff today. 24 disposals and 9 marks into the last from your full back is a great effort when he's under siege from an opposition side that has no pressure on them upfield.

As he should. Why would you hang around a club with no leadership at any level.

Richmond needs to invest in cloning

It doesn't take a Rhodes Scholar to work out that the Tigers have some serious holes – or more like craters – in their list, and if they have any spare change they need to find a way to clone Alex Rance. The All Australian defender was his team's best against the Giants by the length of Manuka with 26 touches, 14 of them contested, nine marks and five rebound 50s, and won his battles with Jeremy Cameron, Jon Patton, plus any of the other GWS forwards he was thrown onto. Richmond's hierarchy must thank God at least 100 times a day that the West Australian chose to re-sign with the club, and it seems his reward is another season of pain. If the Tigers do get themselves a cloning program, they should zap gun forward Jack Riewoldt while they're at it.

Would have lost by a record margin but for Rance. He deserves enormous praise. A selfless player who tries his best every game
