AFL 2021

I see a lot of Lions supporters are pissy they're playing only a few games in Melbourne. Perhaps someone should give them a map of Australia a with a big arrow on Brisbane.

@antipodean It's not a bad draw

We get 2 games at the 'G, and none of our MCG tenant games are offloaded elsewhere. Only North are taking us to Tassie next year.

He is a different unit ,

Always hinted he has other things in his life besides footy that he would like to pursue, and he may not play on that long ,

But it did seem a bit odd and out of the blue right now

ABC described him as a devout Joho Witness. Off to Minister the word?

Yeah , he also runs an academy which helps young players get the balance right between education , football, life.

Writes kids books , like I said different unit ,

He is only 30 but I think his body is more knocked up than people realise , Richmond May have only come right the last few years , but he was on fire well before that , smashing himself around....... going out while on top .

Aaaand as I heard earlier, Rance has split with his missus apparently. Go with God Alex

Some not so nice rumors going around,

One thing that was very odd ,particularly that they are such a tight bunch, was the lack of tributes , nice words etc from his team mates on social media after the news broke ,

Something doesnt seem quite right

yeah, there is a lot of shit being thrown around at the moment, and considering the blokes doing most of the throwing, i'm taking it with a massive grain of salt.

but there does appear to be too much smoke not to be some sort of fire.

Interesting the guy that kick started the talk , with the initial RN , his twitter account is no longer open

I wonder if there was a threat of legal action

And the smoke is?

Rumour I've heard is Rance may be back in the fold if the player group approve. Big trust hurdle to get over there.

All based on rumours. Fights back from injury. Fitness progressing really well. Marriage breakdown. Another player's missus denying an affair on Facebook. Sudden retirement after transfer window closes. no big accolades...
