Springbok lock Eben Etzebeth says he's enjoying his rugby at the Sharks under new mentor Neil Powell.

I don't know how long he will stay at the Sharks, but I think he will be a great 15s coach in future. he's a phenomenal person and great coach. "He was respected at the sevens, he was phenomenal there and he's already a great coach for me. "His rugby knowledge is great and he definitely brings some new tactics to the game because he's got that sevens background." "He's definitely not a know-it-all type of personality and that's sometimes what you need in a rugby team. The Sharks also appear to be a team on the up under Powell.
