It’s a coaching thing, we’re just a lazy team when it comes to defending and the only way we will improve by bringing players in is if we get the defensive equivalent of archer, I.e someone who is to good for the league and carries the defence. Not sure about that logic. If you're saying our defence needs a leader who can marshal the back line...tell them when to push up, get back, mark an attacker etc. then that suggests they all lack the ability to read games. While they might be able to head, tackle etc. they lack game awareness. Obviously any defence would benefit from a player like that, but it would be nice (or take some of the workload off one individual) if we had a few players with that ability. Because when that one player gets injured / suspended, we really suffer without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which goes back to my earlier complaints about the apparent lack of coaching (early in the season when we were *** everywhere...not just in defence).
