The Storm return to the Cape, but will face Australian opposition for the third time in as many weeks.
With only the Brumbies’ scalp to boast of, Allister Coetzee’s men will want to avoid a third Australian defeat, but will be up against it given their injury toll and poor form of late. Having just suffered the ignominy of being the first ever South African team to lose to the Rebels, they’ll not want the Reds to rub further salt into those wounds.
Kick-off at Newlands is at 17h05
Stormers: 15 Joe Pietersen, 14 Gio Aplon, 13 Jean de Villiers (captain), 12 Damian de Allende, 11 Bryan Habana, 10 Elton Jantjies, 9 Louis Schreuder, 8 Nizaam Carr, 7 Don Armand, 6 Siya Kolisi, 5 Eben Etzebeth, 4 Gerbrandt Grobler, 3 Brok Harris, 2 Tiaan Liebenberg, 1 Steven Kitshoff.
Replacements: 16 Martin Bezuidenhout, 17 Chris Heiberg, 18 Marius Coetzer, 19 Rohan Kitshoff, 20 Dewaldt Duvenage, 21 Gary van Aswegen, 22 Gerhard van den Heever.
