Duffty's poor defense is still an upgrade on Hoppa who was either too slow to get to the ball or too slow to shut down a break.

He will make up for it in attack.
People seems to have forgotten how bad Barba's defence was in the lower grades...
I have to admit Hitler Hasler did fix it !

Totally irrelevant. Barba had already improved and won a Dally M by Dufty's age.

It reckon it is relevant. Defense is coachable.

Barba had Folkes, Dymock and Hasler

Duffty had McGregor for the majority of his career...

Are you saying because he is 25 it's too late to fix his defence ?
He is still a baby, Also age shouldn't be a barrier !

For him, yes. It's not just one thing it's numerous. What makes you think he's going to suddenly turn it all around, especially at a club that is currently very poor defensively? It's just wishful thinking.

I'm over this, I've said what I think about Dufty but if people want to keep stroking his cock then go for it. You won't believe it until you see it in blue and white it seems.

I've wasn't a fan of his signing, i remember that particular game last year which we beat the dragons and Duffty was the worst player on the ground but i believe that was due to him falling out with the coach.

Yes, thats not a great attitude but i remain optimistic about his chances as their have been alot positive changes at our club and it just might inspire him to play closer to his full potential.

That's funny, we wanted the club to give the 27 years old serial and disgraceful offender AVERAGE Elliott a fourth chance yet we find it difficult to give a 25 years old Dufty a chance to fix his defence.
Our defence will not be like it was last year for the obvious reasons. :-)
