Neethling Fouche has been entrusted with the responsibility of scrumming against Steven Kitshoff when the former DHL Stormers captains returns to Cape Town on Saturday.The DHL Stormers sprang a surprise by naming Fouche ahead of veteran Frans Malherbe at tighthead prop for the Vodacom URC clash with Ulster.
“We made the decision a few weeks back,” assistant coach Dawie Snyman explained. “Frans played his first game after injury and we started him to manage his game time. This weekend, he is on the bench. Neething has done really well, so he deserves his start. “Steve is quite a professional guy. I’m sure he’s going to just get along with his business. It’s great to have him back.
Lyons, who made his debut in 2020, will play his first Stormers game since November 2022 as a substitute.
