The Sharks have unveiled a new addition to their coaching panel for 2019 – completing their Super Rugby roster.

David Williams has been appointed the attack coach.

Robert du Preez remains the head coach and will be assisted by Ricardo Loubscher (backline), Jaco Pienaar (forwards), Braam van Straaten (defence) and Williams (attack).

Williams has previously worked with Japanese club Kobe Steelers and in the Premiership with London Irish and Bath.

He also had stints with the Cheetahs and Southern Kings.

He was the Kings’ attack coach in 2016, which saw them cause a number of upsets in their final year of Super Rugby – before moving on the Pro14.

“We went through a thorough interview process to appoint a new attack coach and David really impressed us with his vision,” Du Preez said.

“He has an astute rugby brain and will add tremendous value to our attacking play.

“He joined us on Monday [this week] and has fitted in well,” the coach added.

The Sharks will enjoy the benefits of having a settled squad in 2019, as well as the momentum of Currie Cup success in 2018.

The three-year plan, put in place for 2017 to 2019, has already started to pay dividends for the Sharks.

The last four competitions – Super Rugby and Currie Cup (twice) – have seen the Sharks reach the play-off stages in all four, with appearances in consecutive Currie Cup finals – the climax of which was the victory over Western Province at Newlands in October.

After a short break, the Sharks have commenced their pre-season training last Monday, in preparation for the 2019 season.

The Sharks will play two warm-up matches early February 2019 in preparation for their Super Rugby tournament opener against the Sunwolves on Saturday, February 16 in Singapore.

Vern Cotter reflects on his side's recent turnaround in form

TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY IS A GENUINE CRYPTO RECOVERY COMPANY


It was a cold morning when I first realized the full extent of my loss. I had invested 150,000 euros into an online crypto platform, believing in their promises and the allure of quick financial success. But as the days passed, I discovered it was all a scam. My money was gone, and with it, my dreams of financial security.

The feeling of helplessness and devastation was overwhelming. I tried everything to recover my funds contacting authorities, searching for solutions online, and connecting with others who had been through similar scams—but nothing seemed to work. I felt completely lost, as though there was no way back.One Sunday, feeling utterly defeated, I decided to visit Grace Church in Dublin, Ireland. I was searching for some peace and comfort. During the service, I shared my story with the congregation, explaining how I had been scammed and lost everything. I didn’t expect much—just a chance to speak to someone.

Afterward, a fellow parishioner came up to me. He had been listening closely, and after hearing my situation, he shared that he had once been in a similar place.

He had fallen victim to a scam too, and like me, thought his money was gone for good. But someone had recommended a service called TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY to him. He decided to reach out to them, and with their help, he had managed to recover his lost funds.

He suggested I contact them, believing they could help me too.

Though I was skeptical, I was also desperate, so I wrote down their contact information. That evening, I called TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY. From the moment we spoke, I felt a sense of professionalism and empathy that I hadn’t encountered before. They didn’t treat me like just another case. They listened to my story, took my concerns seriously, and reassured me that they would do everything they could to help.The recovery process was detailed and transparent. They kept me updated regularly, explaining each step they were taking. Weeks passed, and though I was anxious, I held onto hope. Then, out of nowhere, I received the incredible news: TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY had successfully recovered 95% of my 150,000 euros. It felt like a miracle. I couldn’t believe it. Thanks to the team at TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY, I was able to regain my financial footing and rebuild emotionally. I’m now more cautious than ever, but I’m also deeply grateful.

Without the kind recommendation from that parishioner at Grace Church, I would never have found the help I so desperately needed.

Today, I’m on the path to full recovery, and I can confidently say that TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY gave me a second chance.

Their dedication and expertise truly made all the difference in my life.
