The wing defence basically helps the goal keeper, but they aren't allowed inside the semi circles. Only players with an "g" on their shirt are allowed in the semi circle. Players with a "w" or "c" basically help the people with a "g" on their shirt to get the ball in the correct semi circle so they can score.
