How much has our defence improved!
I remember early in the year when we were by far the worst defensive team.
We are now 8th based on points conceded.
Could the team now be used to Sheens defensive strategies?

This is a table based on points conceded.

1\. Dragons: 234 - 13 pts per game
2\. Storm: 264 - 14.67
3\. Bulldogs: 320 - 17.78
4\. Titans: 337 - 18.72
5\. Cowboys: 350 - 19.44
6\. Knights: 351 - 19.5
7\. Sea Eagles: 356 - 19.78
8\. **Tigers: 371 - 20.61**
9\. Warriors: 373 - 20.72
10\. Panthers: 381 - 21.17
11\. Sharks: 388 - 21.56
12\. Rabbitohs: 389 - 22.88
13\. Eels: 400 - 22.22
14\. Raiders: 415 - 23.06
15\. Broncos: 454 - 25.22
16\. Roosters: 464 - 27.18
 
The defence has definitely improved after the first 8 rounds or so. For the most part I think the Tigers have defended the middle of the field quite well this season but have struggled off their own line when players have been isolated. It's definitely heading in the right direction with the finals looming so the Tigers can't afford to let up and need to keep working hard at defending.
