EP got it right in Potch, says Coetzee
'It was important for us to get the win away from home and also at altitude, which makes it even more special.
'It was really a satisfying showing from the team after we started slowly and then got into our stride.
'We showed our ability to score tries and we got four before halftime, which was very pleasing.
'EP are still creating too many soft moments in the game where we don't control the chaos, but we are creating a bit of it.
'That was why the Leopards came back in the second half.
'But, having said that, I am really pleased with the showing away from home and we are still on track to achieve our goals.
'EP wanted to be much better in terms of execution and accuracy.
'There were a lot of turnovers and unforced errors that we conceded.
'We talked about taking ownership during the week and players know where they stand.
'They had to look at themselves after the defeat against the Griffons.
'It was a big step up and EP pitched up in Potchefstroom
'I am really pleased with our defence because we held them to three tries and we scored six.
'That shows our improved performance in terms of physicality and us dominating the set piece.'
