An engimatic player, Rance's record of 64 matches and 41 goals is bettered by few. However, the enduring memory of Rance is one of failure, of fleeting brilliance among years of disapointment. His trademark shot, a left footed cannon shooting the ball wide of the nets.

Once a precocious talent, Rance stil holds the rare distinction of representing /vg/ before making his VGL debut. A missed penalty kick in the 2012 Autumn R016 would prove to be an omen of things to come.

The future still looked bright, with Rance's 1-2 punch with TOSH in headlining the strongest offense in the league. Rance scored 4 goals against /skg/ in a 9-1 victory that remains a VGL record today. Heading into the opening day of VGL 7, Rance's record stood at 12 goals from 13 matches and his development into an elite player seemed assured.

But that moment would prove to be Rance's peak. In VGL 7 he scored once. Over the following five VGLs (8-12) Rance would only scored twice in 18 matches. With talk of being elite now a farcical joke, Rance would find himself stripped from the /hanny/ Captaincy.

Unburdended from the Captainy, Rance would finally found the nets. And while he has not become elite, Rance is at least a solid player. Occasionaly glimpses of the young prodigy can still be seen, with Rance's brace against back to back defending champs /dbg/ in VGL14 leading /hanny/ to their finest ever victory.

As the VGL enters its second decade, club and player have regained some respect. "Aiyaah! It's Hanny's decade" the potteries yell in the stands. But for that to be true, /hanny/ needs Rance to take that next step and finally become the player he once threatened to be.
