The legend of Alex Rance

[A TEAM]

Get ready people! rance to play against magpies on thursday! Reid has no chance!

I hope he plays well 'cos other than Hill there isn't any other standout cheap back who looks likely to play a lot of footy this year.

[Heater]

Agree with you there, Postmanpat.  A bit of a struggle finding rookie backs ATM....

Yep I'm hoping he plays well also. With Hurley and Gallman injured the only others I've heard any interest in(and little interest at that) is Kite, Petrenko and Suban.

Have a look at the interview on heralsun.com.au with bombers coach. Said Hurley will get into the senior side as soon as he has recovered from his operation. Looks like a real youth push at Essendon this year. At 150k Hurley might be worth it as a reserve cash cow if Suban and the likes are not named round 1.

Hurley is in my reserves along with rance :)
