Hello and welcome to today’s coverage of the DHL Stormers vs Vodacom Bulls live from DHL Newlands Rugby Stadium, Cape Town. It’s the North vs South derby and the Bulls will be looking for 5 points from today’s match if they are to stay in touch of their dwindling playoff dream. The Bulls have lost the services of their regular skipper Flip van der Merwe as well as flanker Jacques du plessis but will take confidence that the legendary Victor Matfield as well as the new darling of South African rugby Handre Pollard is available for selection. The Stormers are missing the services of regular captain Jean de Villiers and fellow centre Damian de Allende but their absence have been alleviated by the return of the electric Gio Aplon and Juan de Jongh. The exciting Seabelo Senatla is also on the bench and may make his debut appearance for the Stormers. It’s a cold rainy day in Cape Town which may just favour the home team. Ultimate Rugby will keep you up to date throughout the match.
