What do YOU do with Kimmorley?

[King of the Hill]

What would you do?

 

[millersnose]

play him at half back for the sharks

 

[tye]

Give him more ball and piss dykes off.

 

[wattsy32]

Get Him Back to training and aim up at Smashing the Tigers Next Sunday! Face facts, Kimmorley is going no where so why bother trying to find ways for him to get dropped or for him to go away. Ps: I dont believe pissing dykes off would be a good option, he set up our first try nearly went through untouched

Yes Some of the options at the end were due to him but if he didnt fire up when needed,we wouldnt of been in that position at the end in the first place

 

[mr_sharks]

Give him more ball and piss dykes off.

Dykes didn't have a great night tonight but did set up a try (or two). Any side that wins the premiership will have playmakers at half and 5/8.

Kimmorley must stand deeper and give softer passes to his runners. That's his biggest problem - too many short, flat, hard passes to his players running too close to the Defence.

 

[King of the Hill]

how many repeat sets did we get tonight?

 

[mr_sharks]

how many repeat sets did we get tonight?

Zero.

 

[King of the Hill]

why not?

how many times did we kick it dead?

 

[tye]

They did play alot deeper in the 2nd half and the results showed, why do we always want to kick instead of putting it through the hands?, after watching johns in the game before he was brilliant with cut out passes and decoy runners and all we want to do is kick and hope for the best, lack of confidence i guess.

 

[King of the Hill]

kimmorley is great when he runs to the line

we rarely see that now - even when we have a roll-on

 

[Mr Angry]

Give him an 80 min hooker.

 

[King of the Hill]

one thing i will say in his favour is that he wasnt helped by passes above his head close to the roosters line

 

[MilitaryShark]

Does anyone have an opinion on playing Dykes at half and BK at 5/8 ?

 

[wattsy32]

He is great when he runs to the line BUT only when the line is retreating!

It came off a quick play the ball, the one thing i scream every time we get tackled "Get up!" Without the quick play the ball kimmorleys run to the line is unsuccessful like many times in the first half. With a quick play, he is dangerous

 

[Inferno]

Kimmorley runs to the line all the time.

The problem is the whole team knows who he is going to pass it to and as a result whichever poor bastard is on the receiving end of Noddy's pass gets Hammered. Williams must be either a sucker for punishment or always seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

 

[Card Shark]

Kimmorley must stand wider & get the defence to spread - it will make in inside ball more effective.

Also, dont be afraid to go yourself & get hammered a time or 2 'cause that will put the defence in 2 minds as to what is happening next time.

That is our problem - we are not very smart with our minds and not very clever with the ball.

 

[Mr. Shark]

He is a champ, playing with a couple of other champs and a heap of honest toilers.

 

[newman]

I agree that alot of the DH passes went above his head, but KOTHs read on it is spot on. Too many flat hard passes (read hospital) at guys close to the line. He also let Tupou or wing or whoever it was run straight past him to score.

Folkes sacked Sherwin
Sticky sent Soward to the bench
Sheens sent Prince to 5/8

At no point in his tenure at the sharks has ANYONE ever indicated to Brett that he is dispensable. EVERYONE is dispensable. For gods sake, they sacked the Peach. Why not send BK to PL for one freaking week. Good coaches with good halfs will keep them on there toes, as seen above. Brett is a walk up start for four years, and the way he is playing, he shouldnt be.

The guys fought back well, but they should be ASHAMED at the first half, and they should have put that game away, like three other games this year. BK is captain and leader, he should take the fall for not getting wins. Its time for him to go to PL.

Well Prince only went to 5/8 because the kid they brought up from PL could only play halfback. Still your excellent point remains. Perhaps a little pressure to keep his spot could bring out the best in Noddy again.

One feature of his game that did improve tonight though was his touchfinders. Just about the only positive for Noddy though.

Brett Kimmorley has more clout at Cronulla than most coaches do at their respective clubs.
