Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of Stormers vs Lions, LIVE from Newlands - Cape Town. It's do or die time for the Lions. If they lose today, they are out of contention, however should they win, they will lead the SA conference and require some favours from other teams next week in order to stay on top or at lease earn themselves a playoff spot. The Stormers are able to cement their semi-final spot with a victory today. Both sides come off good victories and full of confidence. This has the makings of an enormous match.
