Nicho Hynes finds himself at the center of attention once again as the Cronulla Sharks fell short in their NRL qualifying final against the Melbourne Storm.
The Sharks were never really in the game, repeatedly let down by their own mistakes as the Storm dominated the field.
Hynes, who has yet to lead the Sharks to a finals victory, will surely face scrutiny in the post-game analysis.
In fact, Cronulla has now lost seven straight finals matches, a streak that dates back further than Hynes' time at the club.
The Storm, on the other hand, showed why they are the minor premiers as they cruised to victory.
With a week off to rest and regroup, they are looking like a formidable force heading into the next round of the finals.
The Sharks, on the other hand, will need to bounce back quickly if they want to stay in the hunt for the NRL title.
