A passionate Ruben van Heerden believes that the DHL Stormers can follow Vodacom URC title-holders Munster’s path and finish stronger than ever this season.
Munster wrote themselves into rugby folklore by ending the Stormers’ then record-winning run at Cape Town Stadium last April, before the Red Army returned to Cape Town a month later to dethrone the defending champions and win their first major silverware since 2011.
The Stormers are currently in fifth place on the URC standings with four rounds until the playoffs, and speaking on thepodcast with former Springboks Rudy Paige and Juan de Jongh, Van Heerden reflected on their winless tour earlier in 2023-24 while acknowledging his work rate and game time.“I’m loving playing as much rugby as possible,” the 26-year-old lock said.
