Neethling Fouche will captain a rejigged DHL Stormers 23 against the Sharks on Saturday, with new recruit Wandisile Simelane and a host of returning stars set to feature.
The coastal rivals renew hostilities in round 10 of the Vodacom URC at Kings Park, and Fouche leads a lineup which features a host of changes as the Stormers return after a three-week break.
The bench features fit-again lock Salmaan Moerat, who last featured in round 1 of the competition, while utility back Simelane is set to make his Stormers debut. “The break was good for us and it is fantastic to welcome back some top players from injury,” he added.
