NOTE: Due to the small sample size, during the opening six weeks of the season the VOAs are calculated using a blend of 2021 and 2020 data, and so should only be considered vaguely indicative at best. As the season goes on and the sample size grows, so too does their accuracy. In the meantime, take these figures with a huge grain of salt.
FIRST TIME USERS: Be sure to read the explanation on what VOA Ratings are all about here first.

Overall Defense is based on the projected number of tries the team would concede against a league average team at a neutral ground, converted to a percentage value over average. As always, for defensive stats LOWER numbers are BETTER.
