You rejected Roos (Sharks loan him to WP to get rid of him) and Libbok (he had to stand back for Bosch, previously for Morne at the Bulls). The lock you talk about is Ruben van Heerden. He want to came back to SA and we accommodate him.

They would be nobodies if they stayed at the Sharks.

Enjoy your kak, talking through your arse.

Biggest poachers in South Africa. Rely on other unions to develop the players and then poach. Just don't have the depth. U20 s are getting carrots

SA under 20


Send them to the Bulls or Sharks to develop them

Obviously WP stretched in the different competitions. URC players making up the CC team

The Stormers have SA U20s skipper Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, along with fellow Junior Springbok stars Suleiman Hartzenberg and Connor Evans, headline an exciting crop of Cape-born and raised talent that bolsters the ranks of future Boks at the DHL Stormers. Kade Wolhuter has made a handful of appearances this season but with some consistent game time on the horizon he is tipped to emerge as a bright prospect in the DHL Stormers No 10 jersey.

Fellow Paul Roos Gymnasium alum JJ Kotze is part of a talented group of DHL Stormers hookers to come through the pipeline. Together with Andre-Hugo Venter, he has been relentlessly pushing Boks Joseph Dweba and Scarra Ntubeni for more game time.

Teenage scrumhalf Imad Khan, a 2022 U20 Six Nations Summer Series winner with the Junior Springboks, made his Vodacom URC debut off the bench against Glasgow Warriors in round 12, and the Bishops prodigy could become a contender for the No 9 jersey in the near future.

Yet, the conveyor belt churning out the next generation of DHL Stormers stars is not limited to the schools system in the Cape region. Ben-Jason Dixon and Marcel Theunissen are grafting tirelessly this season in the second and back row, having first caught the eye in the FNB Varsity Cup with (Stellenbosch’s) Maties.

Also, former UCT Ikeys and SA Schools captain and Junior Springbok representative Nama Xaba couples an incredible work ethic with a sharp mind, which has made him an all-round threat all over the park.

“I’m confident in the squad, and it is a young squad,” Dobson said. “But if I think of Sacha, Imad Khan, Suleiman Hartzenberg, Connor Evans, Kade Wolhuter … it’s maybe a bit early for them in the traditional sense but it’s an opportunity for them to get better, and come the 2023-24 season they’ll be so much better for the experience.

“One of the ways we can attract players to the DHL Stormers and to retain the best of our schools, club and Varsity talent is to consistently be title contenders, to play an exciting brand of rugby and to showcase that in playing for us also improves any national Springbok possibility. The Evan Roos story has been a massive story for us, the same with veteran Deon Fourie and the former Paarl Boys High, WP and SA Schools captain Salmaan Moerat. And some of these youngsters I’ve mentioned, maybe not this season but I think they can become Springboks.

“If we’re seen as a Springbok factory, guys will want to come play for us, and that’s an important yardstick for our success.”

Most of the current WP u20s is u19s.
Which young u20 players play urc for the Sharks and Bulld?

Means nothing.

Stormers got good news even before today's semi final. They'll get a big financial injection going forward from a local consortium and Newlands sold.

1/4 - Stormers vs Bulls: 46k fans
1/2 - Stormers vs Connacht: 47k fans
Final - Stormers vs Munster: 50k fans?

That's a tidy contribution to revenue from the last 3 matches.

Thanks to Dobson. I'd like to see the Springboks play the same open game. Libbok has been fantastic.

How much of it will be lost to paying back the debt and for Thelo's lunches?
How much will translate into actual cash for rugby?

I would like to see Dobson coaching the Boks.


There I said it.

I feel dirty and must go shower.


Well done Stomps!

Do the Stormers have a replacement for Kitshoff?

He is an outstanding player, prop and captain.

A HUGE loss for the WP / Stormers.

Vermaak is his replacement at the moment. Look like Kitshoff will be back after making a few with Ulster.

Not good. May never play again.

Gelant back at Stormers from July. Dillman Lleyds and Edwil van der Merwe in process.

Duanne Vermeulen reject the Bulls offer, want to stay in Cape Town with his family, so it's either Stormers or Springboks. Trevor Nyakane also in talks to replace Kitshoff.

Gelant is a fantastic gain. You need another proper fullback

$hark$ play to lose? Did swak.

The Cheetahs in the similiar position, played the Bulls at Loftus and showed their proud for their jersey.

$hark$ players have no proud, they were thrashed by WeePee.

Take the win. It will be a small compensation for WP rugby in a dismal year of no trophies and only 1 final


But remember. The Sharks never , ever wanted to win that match
