Our defence is awful, it's the same issue over and over and over every week and to a certain degree it's the same players that are committing the mistakes.
I too am beginning to wonder if we are actually coaching a coherent system that the players understand, if we are then are we holding the culprits accountable (nice way of putting it) for their continuous repeated errors.
I said weeks ago that there was no interplay between our forwards when we carry the ball, as a result we're getting dominated in the collision, turned on our backs and getting slow play the ball. We're doing it tough on every play coming out if yardage so we get poor field position and are back defending our own line very quickly: repeat ad infinitum!
A few minutes into a game we are knackered from defending so when we get the ball back we come up with unforced errors and give the ball back to the opposition and the vicious cycle of events continues for 80 minutes.
