Backline defence

I don't have Fox sport or Kayo so I'm not able to watch them play on Saturdays.

I thought they played well agianst the Roosters and Broncos. They seemed to find that balance between going up
the middle and using their backs and there appeared to be a good communication and morale among the players.

However in the last two games they have reverted back to that inconsistent backline defence that dogged them last year.
Why? I thought they'd sorted that out. It's not rocket science. Mark your man and slide.

Do they just forget to do this in the heat of the moment? 

Maybe  Gutho needs to direct them more.
