Energetic Sharks utility back Werner Kok has received high praise from his coach Sean Everitt for his splendid performances over the past few weeks.
Former Rugby Sevens star Kok was on fire as the Sharks brushed aside the Dragons 51-3 as the Durbanites returned to winning ways in the United Rugby Championship in the coastal city on Friday night.
The 29-year-old Olympic medallist has been playing at right-wing for the Sharks in the past four games in the absence of Sbu Nkosi who is linked with a move away from the Everitt-coached team.“We know that he has got a high work rate and he puts in a lot of second and third efforts on the rugby field.
Everitt also reserved special praise for hooker Bongi Mbonambi and flyhalf Curwin Bosch as the coach feels the players were able to pick themselves up after dissatisfying performances in the defeat to Edinburgh last week. “Curwin also came through well after a lot of criticism during the week and probably played one of his better games tonight. I’m pleased for the individuals but most importantly pleased for the team,” he said.
