The JWH Factor - Defense

[Guest]

In the 22 halves of footy that JWH has played for us this year...

- in 13 halves, we have conceded ZERO tries
- in 4 halves, we have conceded ONE try
- in 2 halves, we have conceded TWO tries
- in 2 halves, we have conceded THREE tries (when Souths blew us off the park in the first half in Rd 1; when Warriors almost ran us down in the second half in Rd 2)
- in 1 half, we have conceded FOUR tries (when Raiders ran us down in the second half in Rd 5)

That is an amazing record. Our defense looks far more assured and strong when JWH is there leading the forward pack around. With him gone, we had two very mediocre losses to Storm and Warriors, a horribly scrappy win against Parramatta, and two decent wins against Bulldogs and Cowboys.

We must thank MLK for all those 3rd man blind lemon pie tackles maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate.

He's led the way when many others just sat back and let the reff call held.

Updated again! The defensive streak continues!

In the 26 halves of footy that JWH has played for us this year...

- in 15 halves, we have conceded ZERO tries
- in 6 halves, we have conceded ONE try
- in 2 halves, we have conceded TWO tries
- in 2 halves, we have conceded THREE tries (when Souths blew us off the park in the first half in Rd 1; when Warriors almost ran us down in the second half in Rd 2)
- in 1 half, we have conceded FOUR tries (when Raiders ran us down in the second half in Rd 5)

15/26 conceding no points at all, 21/26 conceding no more than one try.

That is seriously impressive. More than 50% of the halves played with JWH have been watertight (no tries conceded) and a ridiculous 21 out of the 26 halves played with JWH have yielded no more than a single try. When you can literally remember clear as day the few defensive lapse halves that we had (first half v Souths in Rd 1, second half v Warriors in Rd 2, second half v Raiders in Rd 5) you know you have a powerful defensive unit. The players are tackling hard and trusting each other in the line.

It is really evident now how much we missed him while he was out suspended. We still won 3 (and lost 2) games but our defense always looked a bit shaky and had to rely on good attack to win the matches. If we are regularly keeping the other team to 6-12 points maximum, we won't lose.
