Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 3102048, member: 8215"] Set plays, depth, and attacking structure are great and all, but worthless if you can't defend. You just don't put an attacking play out of nowhere. You need the opposition to be fatigued or off-kilter before you bother with a set play, otherwise you'll just end up going sideways or pushing forced passes, defensive structures are too good when not stretched. We may have had the best structures in the game but we had zero opportunities to use them in games like the Eels' final. Hence why we went to "boring one-out" plays. It's through the forwards that you have to wrestle back momentum and try to force fatigue. That's made even harder when you're dropping the ball and being forced to defend too much yourself. If Seibold hasn't spent 80% of the match-specific training on defence, we're in for another long year. [/QUOTE]
