The most authentic defender we have, in my opinion, is Connell Rawlinson, who pretty much is a head it, kick it, old school centre-half.
Whether he's good enough for this level I'm no so sure, having seen him completely bamboozled by Harry Smith last night, but at least he understands that his primary role is to defend. I'd say Chicksen and Macari are our other two 'defenders' in terms of having genuine defensive instincts and reasonable concentration levels. Baldwin does something great one moment, and then commits a howler the next. You can't have that sort of inconsistency and lack of focus in that part of the pitch.
