our average points against is 80. That ranks us 10th best defense.

BUT if you can indulge yourself to consider it an anomaly and remove the Eagles game

our average points against is 75

75 x 9 = 675

lowest scores against

Sydney - 659
Freo - 660
Port/WC - 685

so we'd be the third hardest team to score against in the league

If only we kept West Coast scoreless!

Sorry, the bye round threw me!

We smashed Richmond 15 to 6.

Done.

I am pretty sure we are right up there for goals- inside 50's

Geelong as a team has only lost 17% of all one-on-one contests, clearly the leaders in the AFL - the Dees are next, losing 22% of contests

I can't say this with confidence, but I think most people will find these jokes are pretty average.
