I think the last two nights may be indicative of the team this year. High offence that comes from 2-3 lines regularly, can turn it on when needed. But a bit loosy goosey on the back end with no real shut down specialists. Hopefully team defence improves with more commitment from forwards to come back and support.
Smith will again play the biggest role in whether we shut an opponent down or not. I honestly dont know which backup is better.
