Stormers face crucial final four home games

They will play their final round-robin matches all at home, and while they are outside of the top eight following a 38-34 loss to Ulster in Belfast this past Friday, they will know precisely what is needed to make the playoffs.

The Stormers, currently 10th, will face Connacht, Benneton, the Dragons and Cardiff at the DHL Stadium and all four games are winnable with a full house of points. Director of rugby Dobson must only figure out over the next couple of weeks what his team selections will look like as they chase to end amongst the top six at least.
