Vincent Koch is confident that Edinburgh coach Sean Everitt will be highly motivated when they face the Sharks in their upcoming United Rugby Championship (URC) match in Durban. Returning to Kings Park, where he previously coached the Sharks from 2020 to 2022, Everitt will aim to prove himself against his former team. Koch, who recently made his Sharks debut in a win against Ulster, believes that Everitt will push his players to perform at their best. Despite not being part of the team during Everitt's tenure, Koch understands the added motivation of facing a former club.
The win against Ulster has boosted morale within the Sharks camp, with Koch praising the team's resilience and positive spirit. After overcoming a knee injury sustained during the 2023 Rugby World Cup, Koch cherished his long-awaited debut for the Sharks and is grateful for the support he received during his recovery.
