Stormers wary of rested Lions ahead of URC derby
Cape Argus
|December 15, 2025
THE Lions may be licking their wounds after a second straight Challenge Cup defeat, but the Stormers know the team arriving in Cape Town on Saturday will be a very different beast as the United Rugby Championship (URC) local derbies roar back into life.
Following an eighth victory of the season, which sees them remain unbeaten in all competitions, the Cape side will have a big target on their back as they head into a crucial stage of their URC campaign from this weekend.
The Stormers secured a bonus-point 42-21 victory over La Rochelle in Ggeberha this past Saturday. It leaves them atop Pool 3 in the Champions Cup, with two more matches to play in January before the knockout stages.
