Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3653479, member: 9052"] There was a write up on broncos defence on the Rugby League Eye Test (link below), which basically boiled down to broncos are letting their opposition get into good scoring positions too often, which is not dissimilar to last year, but this year the goal line defence is letting them down, but last year's was also godly (i.e. difficult to sustain compared to just not letting them get near your goal line). They're also not getting into good enough positions to score... not always a concern for us as we're basically the best in the comp at scoring from distance. However, there is a limit to that and we are the worst in the comp for tackles inside our own 50m, which has actually been worse than 2020 and 2021. Our tackles inside the opposition 20m is also the lowest in the comp and the lowest the broncos have had in the last decade. So basically we're conceding too many soft meters... through the crap catch and wrap that we've employed this year... and we're not making any meters in yardage... meaning we are getting dominated in field position. Opponent's basically just need to complete their sets and they will end up winning the field position battle, which will eventually lead to points.
