Ulster to face Stormers' 'very exciting trio'
Cape Times
|March 28, 2025
SULEIMAN Hartzenberg is keen to play at outside centre for the Storm-ers, and director of rugby John Dobson hopes that shuffling his team for Friday's clash with Ulster brings the X-factor of the utility back to the fore.
The youngster returns from a broken hand, and is one of several changes to the side for the United Rugby Championship duel at the Kingspan Stadium (9.35pm start).
Fullback Warrick Gelant, captain Salmaan Moerat and Frans Malherbe are the notable players out, with only Malherbe taking a Bok-enforced breather.
Gelant and Moerat, stars in the previous match against the Scarlets, sustained injuries and were unavailable for selection.
Returning after the birth of his second child, tighthead prop Neethling Fouché is back in the starting line-up in the absence of Malherbe and will also captain the side.
