Where to now for Stormers?

The Stormers are facing their first dip in form of the current season and will now have to work out their issues over a three week break to rediscover their touch ahead of the business end of the United Rugby Championship (URC) and Champions Cup.

Where to now for Stormers?

John Dobson’s (above) side are next in action at the end of the month, when they take on the Lions at Ellis Park in what could be a massive encounter for both teams in terms of achieving their goals set out for the season.

If the Lions go down to the Sharks a week earlier, they will be an incredibly desperate team, and a third straight URC defeat for the Stormers would put their hopes of securing a home URC semifinal and final, should they get there, in major jeopardy.
