Easier said than done Nutz. I see us as similar to where Canterbury were at 3 years ago when when Burton played his first year. Having said that I'd say we're ahead of them at that stage simply because we have far better spine players.
Anyway, it took the dogs 3 years to get their defence right, and that's with a gun defensive coach setting up the system, and adding great players years on year. As you pointed out, we don't have that in our coaching.
I try not to get bent out of shape too much over trials though, especially one with only 1 player who's guaranteed to play regular 1st grade.
I'd like to know the points diff for the dogs compared to us over the last 3 years.
I agree about the trials but what I can't fathom is we went all out to pay big dollars for attack but nothing has been promoted regarding defence, the biggest problem by far. We got 3 spoons for crap D and as far as I'm aware, Morris is still our D coach.
