I get the impression Kennedy is cover or either Pearson & Lawlor - prompted by Manny Smith's knee operation - Tharme is also injured and hasn't been available for some time.
If we had a 5 man defence it would be reliant on the wing backs attacking down the flanks - Jennings might prosper but doesn't seem to have the ability to get back as well as hoped - the other flank is probably a non starter.
Rather than 5 defenders passing it along the back line for ever I would prefer more attack options - the defence has been solid, possibly the most solid in the league - it's the top end of the field we have been woeful - either the strikers or the lack of supply to them.
