This might be a simplistic question but how does a player get to NSW Cup, let alone first grade, and not know how to defend? Isn't defence one of the basic skills of a rugby league player? I can understand that in juniors they might be bigger, stronger, faster, whatever, and look like they are good because of this, but surely a coach has identified their defensive issues before they get to NSW Cup or first grade and tried to rectify them.
If Rajab (as well as Alamotti, Okunbor and Perham) can't defend now, why are they in first grade? Actually they shouldn't be in NSW Cup either
