I reckon ignoring Weitering who is dominant, Byrne was probably our best defender, he played well when they were all over us.
O'Shea knows how to get to the ball but jeez, his ball use at AFL level is pretty ordinary.
Jones needs to do more than just punch the ball OOB. Don't get me wrong he's great at that, but it just gives the opposition repeat I50 stoppages/scoring opportunities. He's had more opportunity to mark than Weitering, yet Weitering has 12 marks, Jones has 4! Marks mean clean disposal or an exit from our D50. Jones is too mobile to be statically punching the ball away, he has to mark and attack.
