I know Rance is Super human but have you ever jumped off your feet in a straight line and then managed to dive sideways while off the ground? Damn near impossible, except for Rancey.

Nah, he gets bumped between strides, rather than trying to regain his balance and spoil, he knows he doesn't have time because the ball is so close so he throws his arm back to try and hit it on his way down.
Play on.
 
What was the verdict?

Nothing from the match was commented on, no actions taken. Or the official version:

The AFL advises the match review of last night’s rd12 Port Adelaide v Richmond game has been completed. No charges laid. No incidents that required a detailed explanation. Ends

Why single Rance out when theres countless players that exaggurate contact in all games of AFL. If you're unhappy with the way he plays at least be consistent and condemn everyone else that does this.
Ben Brown the biggest stager in the game at present, runs himself under the ball and throws himself forward as if he's been pushed, in pack situations flails his arms around like he's been interfered with. Then his excuse for a coach comes out in the media to say he's not getting frees when he should, the pair of them are tossers. Umpires should watch the replays and be embarrassed for some of the frees they pay to Brown.

Brown pays his own free kicks like its street ball. Hilarious
 
"Thomas does it differently" /argument

Same argument as the menage e trois of Geelong twats.
How would people react? You’ve had people bagging out range is here pretty much since Friday night?

Thomas behaviour wasn’t just staging. He was a disliked footballer for many reasons
 
Richmond fans are funny. Perpetual victims.
 
Rance jumps to try touch the ball even though he has been pushed in the back! Umpires need to pay free kicks when they are there! the “In the back” rule was not abolished when the hand in the back came in to effect.

The side isn't in the back. I don't think it's a dive but it isn't worthy of a free kick
 
Thanks for proving my point kids!
 
Can't wait for Alex Rance to be named AA this year, and all the melts from the conspiracy nuffies claiming their bottom 8 team's fullback is a better player.

Might've been paid (pushed out of the contest when ball not within 5m) if the free to Sam Gray wasn't there first. Similar frees were paid for much less this weekend.
