I've been looking too. Nothing I can find mentions him having kids, he may have been a confirmed bachelor as they say, but he had brothers so the kid may be a grandson of one of them or no relation

Wow. This is really impressive, given it is his FIRST day at the club!!!!

Have been feeling dispirited after our insipid loss in the PF last season, but this lifts the spirits enormously. :)

On a serious note. That sort of running ability will make the lad hard to run with all day and can come into his own late in games. Welcome to Collingwood Jay!!
Well it was on the cards Jay can continuously runs sub 2:55 minute kilometres and so does Flipper, the head to head had to come and the younger man won. We have to blessed with two of the finest runners in the comp. Can't forget some games where Flippers running ability made the difference to the result!

Rantall was your proverbial porridge pick. Some recruiters say he went to early, some say he went to late and some think pick 40 was just right.
At least he has natural fitness. That’s one box ticked.

Porridge pick? Always good for you? A bit bland but always substantial?

Sounds like he was a slider.

I've heard good judges at the Club have said he is the most impressive kid they've ever seen come into the program.

Me too. Heard the very same thing from the inner sanctum, there are some big wraps.
