Well we did get a new defence coach in. I just don’t know we poached hardly defensively noted Souths coach.
Then again we just needed new coaches, amirite?
We should've bought the best defence coach! How did the Bulldogs get him ffs!?!

In 2020 and 2021 we were top four in defence. Good luck and resources hey?
You’re telling this story, and by the backend of 2020 our defence was aids again. I’ve never been confident in our defence when it comes to crunch it why we were never really threat last year against Penrith.

I don’t believe those stats are correct. I remember him missing at least 3, u less they only count missed tackle if the defender puts a hand on the attacker
If they're not close enough to the attacker to even touch him why would it be a missed tackle? This is why teams use decoy runners, to create space. That space is what you see when a defender doesn't get close enough to the attacker. If Davey had ignored Fifita's decoy run you would've seen Fifita get the ball and stroll straight through.

I didn't know that. Did you little birds tell you this or did you make it up?
It's simple mathematics. Under a salary cap you need to prioritise your signings and retentions. More important players get more money while less important players get less. It's a fair system.

Who gives a f**k you Tit!!
Well you must, because you're saying our position on the ladder is all because of our defence. I just showed you that other sides with worse defence are higher on the ladder, so you're wrong. Maybe you can admit that luck actually is a factor instead of looking for a scapegoat when you're sad or angry.

Nobody was really a threat to Penrith last year. They belted Souths the week before as well.

South’s were up 12 nil after 30 mins lol. They made a game of it at least, we did not. We are never a chance while we are coached by Bea no matter how good the squad is.
