Where did I say to prioritise attack, my whole post was about defense, the point being the new recruits as a collective should improve attitudes as well as their experience level at defending.

I was responding to multiple post ....not just yours

All that means is a bigger transfer fee payable to Wigan. Most ESL players have NRL get-out clauses especially players of the ilk of Nsemba.

Some important tid bits ...

- Frizell & wife moving to Sydney (no commute from Newy)
- Rates Bula highly
- Possibility of extending at WT if both parties see fit

I can see him becoming a junior development coach after his contract

Any $ values been mentioned for Friz Mann Brailey, that the club is paying

Junior Nsemba spending a lot of time with KPP whilst he's here for the world cup.

Hopefully he's talking him into becoming a Tiger 🐅 🙏

That blokes a beast and looks like he enjoys hurting oppositions

Look everyone think defence is a 5 minute fix or even an off season fix
I'm gunna use the 2019 Panthers as an example
To get to the where they got to in 2020 and beyond it took 2 off seasons and a full season to get to that level
They finished 10th in 2019 , below us and had a -61 for and against
They had to change everything throughout the club at all levels of football development
But look at the time involved , and I know our pain is stretched over 15 years and another year of pain is the last thing any of us want
But that's what it is going to take to get to the top
And it all comes off their defence , yes I know it helps having Cleary as a player, but his defence is arguably the best of any half in the comp
They back their defence to get them into winning positions
If it's good enough for them , then that's the level we need to aim
And I'm not saying our attack doesn't need work it needs work , but if you concentrate on attack you never fix the crux of the problem and just have to chase more and more points every week
You have to fix your defence first

A good solid consistent defence,.play the long game and frustrate the opposition ala Penrith recently and.Melb past....wait for errors and force them away from what they want to do
The wrestle is a big part of it.
