Edinburgh Rugby coach Sean Everitt has admitted there was a “harsh review” following his team’s 55-21 defeat to the Emirates Lions in Round 3.

Everitt’s team trailed 48-0 at the break in Johannesburg, setting an unwanted record for the biggest ever half-time margin in league history.

They conceded no fewer than seven tries before the interval and eight in all as they went down to their third defeat in as many matches this season.

Everitt admitted his players felt embarrassed by their display against the Lions and said he had to get the team back on its feet again for the meeting with the Stormers.

“It was quite a harsh review after that performance - of letting down the club, our families, as well as our supporters - and it's for us to acknowledge that,” said the South African.

"But, at the same time, we've got to move forward and get back on the horse and beat the Stormers.”

He added: “It's not easy being a coach. There's pressure every week in this game.

“But we enjoy the challenges of making things right and I'm very confident this team's going to rebound this weekend.”
