Although our attacking presence has been somewhat lack lusture, another vital aspect of the game has been somewhat shambolic... our defence.
Time and time again the players are tackling around peoples shoulders, or trying to get big hits in, and allowing players to turn and get an offload off.
I don't know how any of the coahing staff are missing it, and why they think its acceptable to tackle so high, as I'm sure if you ask any player where they were taught to tackle.... they'll say around the legs.
Buderus is a crock, and his arrival has completly unsettled diskin, as well as rumour has it the remainder of the team!!
Yet another GH blunder.
Apart from McGuire, Burrow & Donald, our whole backline needs reshuffling and some serious recruitment.
Webb doesn't look a patch on what he was, and as sad as it is to say having suffered a serious back injury, i doubt he will get it back either
Need a serious replacement for Toopi!! Ablett, isn't a centre... let alone a winger where he played yesterday, Gibson isn't yet what he once was, and smith isn't a centre either. Watkins is one for the future, and shouldn't be rushed.
In additon to that, this could well be Senior's last season.....
