Guys
I live in the Uk(Although originally from the Shire), and I dont get to see too many highlights of games etc, but I have a few questions on Sticky's coaching.
1) Is our poor attack down to our intensity in defence, ie our players throw everything into defence, therefore leaving nothing in the tank to attack, except for the standard hit ups. Does anyone else think that maybe if we reduced our intensity a little bit in defence, that we might score a few more tries? We have players that have been attacking stars in previous seasons, but doing nothing at the moment, ie Simonds and Pom.
2) Over the last few seasons the Sharks have been in the top 8/ top4 after 10 or so rounds, and then fall in a heap to miss the finals or just make it(Like 2005, and fingers crossed this doesn't happen in 2008), again is this down to our intensity in defence? Do our players get burnt out mid season, and then have nothing for the rest of the year, while other teams build up there intensity throughout the year?
