THE Stormers have had four weeks to lick their mental wounds after back-to-back defeats to the Sharks, and in that time, they have been physically boosted by a host of returning players ahead of Saturday’s visit to the Lions at Ellis Park (kickoff 2.30pm).

Nel and ‘miracle man’ Fourie could return for Lions clash

Perhaps chief among them is the influential leader Ruhan Nel, who marshalled the Stormers from the midfield during their golden run in the first half of the United Rugby Championship.

Stormers assistant coach Dawie Snyman said on Monday that, in addition to Nel, Deon Fourie, Seabelo Senatla, Dan du Plessis, and Jean-Luc du Plessis are also back in training.

That represents a wealth of back-line experience plus a loose forward boost in the form of never-say-die veteran Fourie. Earlier in the season, the Stormers suffered a slew of injuries to their back division.
