Stormers target attacking revival in decider

UTILITY back Wandisile Simelane could be the attacking spark the Stormers' backline needs to run rampant against the visiting Leicester Tigers in their final Champions Cup pool match tomorrow in Cape Town.

(EPCR)

In their last two matches, the Cape side's normally potent backline has been kept in check by Harlequins and the Bulls, who gave them little room to work their magic on attack. However, they are ready to address those issues and fire on all cylinders as they face a desperate Tigers side at the DHL Stadium (5.15pm start), looking to clinch a playoff spot in the competition.

The Stormers currently sit third in the pool and must win the encounter to progress, while a five-point victory would give them the best possible chance of securing a home Round of 16 game.
