Stormers reinforcements making timely return
The Citizen|December 19, 2024
The Stormers are expected to name a strong team for their United Rugby Championship (URC) encounter against the Lions at the Cape Town Stadium on Saturday after some timely reinforcements returned to full training.
Ross Roche

The Cape side has been in an injury crisis of late, which has seen 17 frontline players unavailable, and part of the reason for their dismal form this season. They have won just two of their eight games across the URC and Champions Cup (EPCR).

Last weekend they even sent a severely under-strength team to England, naming five debutants in the match-23 for their EPCR thumping at the hands of Harlequins, while leaving frontline players at home to prepare for the Lions game.
