http://www.premiershiprugby.com/premiership/rugby/table.php

Harlequins has the best attack in the AP with 17 tries to their tally. Sale are 2nd with 14.

Bath currently have conceded the least amount of tries - a measly 5. Wasps and Worcester are joint 2nd on 6.

Leicester currently have the worst defence leaking a staggering 18 tries in 5 games. Their attack isn't bad though with joint 3rd best.

Worcester have the worst attack in the AP with only 3 tries scored, surprisingly Saints are in 2nd place with only 4 scored.

The current bonus point kings are London Irish (surprisingly not Leicester) with 4 (1 try bonus,3 losing bonus points).

Worcester have conceded the least amount of points - a measly 79. That's on average 15 points a game. In comparison Leicester have conceded the most amount of points. A whopping 167. That's more than 30 points a game!

Almost a surprise that we are not bottom. In fact just a lucky win at Falcons keeps them below us.

Defence has been an issue for a while now. Last season we had a real issue around the breakdown, this year the organisation is lacking, leaving people in bad positions which helps create missed tackles.

Larder doing a good job at Worcester then

He was until yesterday when Worcester conceded 42 points.
