The Stormers are aiming to bounce back from a recent loss to the Bulls with a tough double-header on the Highveld, facing the Lions at Ellis Park and the Bulls at Loftus in the coming weeks. The team is determined to secure crucial wins in these local derbies to climb the United Rugby Championship (URC) standings.
The Stormers have two tough Highveld derbies over the next three weekends, taking on the Lions at Ellis Park on Saturday, followed by the Bulls at Loftus.
Despite the loss they still managed to pick up two losing bonus points from the game, which lifted them up to 10on the log, with two games in hand over most of the teams ahead of them, and both will be desperate for a win to rise up the log. “The SA derbies are tough, the boys really go at each other but we’re looking forward to going up to the Highveld. It’s always a nice challenge up there.
