Well if the defence is rubbish then we should put high scores on the Australians, that's the logical conclusion of what you stated in your opening post.
If we can't and aren't going to put high scores on the Australians then it's clear that their defence isn't rubbish, but instead their attack happens to be awesome, something people often get mixed up.
It's a dichotomy, there is no middle position.
