If we don’t try players in different positions get ready for a repeat of the Hogan show every time Weiters gets injured.
We won the first two games of the season without Weitering. Young played quite well as Weitering's replacement and he and Sam Durdin are much better key defender options than De Koning and Curnow will ever be, even if they spent the whole pre-season learning our defence structures and patterns.
Weitering was hobbled against GWS ... as were McGovern and De Koning, and our team defence didn't function for two quarters.
