Last season's prolific goal-scorer for the Phoenix is taking time adjusting to new coaching requirements.
Form can be a fickle thing and you don't need to look any further than Jeremy Brockie for an example.
Last season the Wellington Phoenix striker was scoring goals from all corners and despite the side going on to eventually claim the A-League's wooden spoon, Brockie's 16 goals in 24 games were one of the shining lights in a dour campaign.
But while the arrival of new coach Ernie Merrick has made nearly every player in the club produce some of their best football, Brockie's opportunities have dried up and he has scored only three goals in 17 appearances this season.
He went through a lengthy mid-season scoring drought and lost his starting job to Tyler Boyd, although Brockie did start in last Sunday's 5-0 loss to the Melbourne Heart.
