Edinburgh have endured a tough start to their season and currently sit second from bottom on the log after losing their opening three games. Earlier this week, Stormers assistant coach Norman Laker said they were well aware of what to expect from Edinburgh, especially with the visitors knowing the home team’s coach and SA born players.
“They are a quality outfit. Even though they have three losses on the trot, in this competition there are no weak teams. Anyone can beat anyone on any given day.“Pierre Schoeman and Duhan played for the SA U20s when I was there. They are a great team. While they haven’t clicked at the moment, they can on Saturday and it will be a different game.
