Our defensive performance so far. : Mon Apr 17, 2023 8:01 am  

We have let in 109 points in 9 games. That's 12.11 points a game. Second only to Wigan (91 / 10.11).

This is in an incredible turn around from last season where the average was 24.6 points a game.

Richard Marshall seems to have worked wonders.

Friday was our worst performance of the season by far. And we conceded two tries to the team in second place. I don’t think we can really feel too bad about that.

I think we threw everything into the first couple of months as we knew we needed a good start. I fully expect us to go through a bit of a rough patch now, losing to a desperate Saints this week, then hopefully clawing a few plucky victories against lower opposition in the following weeks while we sit in 2nd place below Wigan. Hopefully toward the end of the season we’ll get back to our dominant best ready for the playoffs.
