Sacha: Not wrong for Stormers to aim for big URC prize

IT would be wrong not to aim for 20 points in their final four games at home, and the Stormers have embraced that mindset as they look to give themselves the best possible chance of qualifying for the United Rugby Championship (URC) playoffs.
Their first big task is facing an injury-depleted Connacht on Saturday at Cape Town Stadium (4pm kick-off).

“When you can get five points, you must take the five.
