"However, Kimmorley refuted suggestions he didn't gel with Dykes.
"I think we've combined well every week, but people seem to be making a big issue of it," Kimmorley said."
OK, I might be barking up the wrong tree here, but does that suggest that he thinks they're partnership is improving every week they play together, since they have rejoined? Or should it simply be taken on face value, in which case it is utter ignorance.
"The former NSW and Australian halfback offered a different reason for the Shire club's recent slide, suggesting opposition defences were getting away with more in the ruck."
The day that BK and co look at themselves to find what is wrong is the day that we'll start winning games again. Too often the finger is pointed, implying that the Sharks always play well, never make mistakes or do anything wrong. If they lose 'the other team was better'. We all know this is not true, I swear they don't see anything as they look in the mirror......
"We've unfortunately had to change our style of play a little bit because we're not getting the play-the-balls we want any more ... it's open slather in the ruck," Kimmorley explained.
"That sort of slowed us down and took our effectiveness away a bit.
"We are trying to adapt to it, but when you train all off season on what you think it's going to be and mid-year things change ... that's where we are at the moment."
Coaches should have a few plan B's for this from the start. Doesn't take long to figure out how to combat a one-dimensional game plan. Just doesn't cut it with me. Every team goes through rough patches, you know it's coming, so why not have a few things ready in case, practice them and then the players know what they are doing, then it is merely a transition.
