66 points per game

Post: # 722684Post fonz_#15 »

that is what we have conceded so far. only 198 from 3 games and have managed to score 114 points per game.

this is down to our amazing tackle counts, so far, and i think i read that we had 45 tackles in our forward half on saturday.

Kudos to the coaching staff on hardening us up.

Anyone know how to find the lowest points-conceded average over a season?

I reckon we'll be giving that a shake this year.

I'm guessing the record belongs to Adelaide.

tried to have a look mate but didn't know where to find it.

we do line up well defensively, and will only get better with Max to return

i can find the scores for and aganst for the entire season for each club going back 100 years or so but it doesnt have the averages.....you could work them out i spose
heres the link:
http://stats.rleague.com/afl/teams/stkilda/season.html

to get to other clubs stats click the 'afl main' tab select the club and then click 'season summary'.

not a bad stats site, have a look around 8-)

Don't forget our last three H&A games last year too!

112-69
95-47
147-39

Plus our preseason games have been similar, can't be arsed looking for those scores though. :P

Thought I would bump this.. 1170 points from 19 games = 61.58 points per game... keep it up for a few more games and can we lay claim to having the best defence of the modern era??
