    Defence - 3 of the last 4 games

    7.9 (51)

    3 of the last 4 games have had the same result in points against 7.9 - 51
    Against
    14 Richmond
    16 West Coast
    17 Carlton

    GWS spoiled the party with 8.12 in round 15.

    Sydney Swans, AFL Season 2014

    I'm pretty sure we are also the only team not to have had 100 or more points kicked against us.
    GWS were the closest with 99 in Round 1.

    After our last loss to NM our AVG for and Against was 79.5 - 87.5
    Now it is 96.7 - 67.4

    Second best in the league for points against. Third best for points scored.

    That's leads to the highest percentage and 1st place on the ladder

    Great pick up Scott. I know the defence prides itself to be a well drilled machine, but that is taking it a tad too far.

    They just have.

    177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out....

    4 losses out of the last 5!!!

    Also it is unusual that a team will make the GF in their first finals appearance for a while.
