DHL Stormers Get Backline Boost Ahead Of Two-Week Tour

 

The DHL Stormers leave on Tuesday for their two-week Vodacom United Rugby Championship tour boosted by the return from injury of Springboks Damian Willemse and Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu as well as Suleiman Hartzenberg.

The Stormers will face the Scarlets on the 22nd and Ulster the week thereafter.

Damian Willemse and Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu have yet to play this year, with both last in action in October 2024 and December respectively.

"Sacha and Damian have been in and out of the squad in terms of their workload, but last week they put in a full week with us when they weren’t in the national alignment camp," said Snyman at a Stormers conference on Monday.

"They are players with obvious class so you feel their presence when they are back, not just in terms of what they do on the field, which is important, but also off it."

"They take on leadership roles in team meetings and bring their influence which makes a difference. Suleiman is back from his hand injury and also looks ready to go.”

“We’re excited to have them in the squad again.”
