You're right. Fletcher was far more damaging than Rance ever will be.Rance nothing like Fletcher, you don't know much about football mate, are you new to the sport?

What do you think zoning off an opponent means?Rance
Rance doesn't play as a spare man, he plays off his man and uses his anticipation and closing speed to mark that player,
Similar, but Rance gets to more contests and is a superior ground level player so he impacts the play much more.That McGovern move to mark in the last 2 mins of GF was a classic Rance move except Rance does it throughout the whole game. This thread is just a Rance trolling thread look at the poll.Most football people would agree that Rance is clearly still ahead on McGovern.What do you think zoning off an opponent means?
Fletcher didn't play spare man. He played on the 2nd or 3rd forward allowing him to zone off and use his reach and speed to get across and help his teammates out on a regular basis. Isn't that what Alex does?
Superior ground level player? Fletcher regularly took players like Phillip Matera, Eddie Betts and others like that and towelled them up. Dig up, stupid!Similar, but Rance gets to more contests and is a superior ground level player so he impacts the play much more.That McGovern move to mark in the last 2 mins of GF was a classic Rance move except Rance does it throughout the whole game.

Worst. Argument. EverCome back to me when McGovern gets named All Australian captain, McGovern lovers!
* no, he is less of a sook though.Is Liam Jones better than Rance?
Ah.Similar,
Come back to me when McGovern gets named All Australian captain, McGovern lovers!
Rance can play small or tall and spends alot of time at the bottom of a pack ,knocking the ball to our advantage.McGovern just plays tall.McGovern is probably the better swing man up forward but that's he only category that he's in front.Ah.
So Rance plays similar to Fletcher? So maybe, just maybe, he didn't revolutionise his position? Maybe he just adapted what Fletcher did, albeit in your opinion he does it better.
Which is fine I'm not commenting on whether or not Fletcher or Rance is the better player because that would be a waste of bandwidth. All I'm saying is Rance didn't invent the "take the 2nd or 3rd forward and peel off to help your teammate" role.
It's not about the last game they played, it's about their whole career.If you think this poll is a true reflection of anything, you have your hand on it my friend.Yikes, Gov smashing Rance in the poll.
Makes you wonder why Richmond fans can't see that Gov is definitely the superior player.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Richmond fans create the same thread on their board/safe space now.

Read the Jakovich article mate and get your hand off it.Yikes, Gov smashing Rance in the poll.

Or perhaps it's due to the fact that he is overhyped by the media to the point whenever he does a basic defensive act that 99% of defenders playin AFL can do, commentators scream "OHHH ONLY ALEX RANCE CAN DO THAT!"All I can say is Western Australia sure know how to produce quality backmen.
I'm more than happy with Rance he is elite and pretty sure if he played for anyone else they would be more than happy to have him too.
McGovern is also elite. Rance is the most hated of the two because he plays in Victoria where most of the oppo fans are just seriously jealous.
If he had of stayed and picked to play at West Coast he would be loved and adored by West Coast fans being the son of Murray but still despised by Freo supporters.
Footy fans are fickle
The same Jakovich who is regularly derided for being a moron?Read the Jakovich article mate and get your hand off it.
Ok ,so your opinion carries more weight than Jakovich,the only man to beat Wayne Carey regularly.You guys are really clutching at straws!Or perhaps it's due to the fact that he is overhyped by the media to the point whenever he does a basic defensive act that 99% of defenders playin AFL can do, commentators scream "OHHH ONLY ALEX RANCE CAN DO THAT!"
