Kolisi to miss rest of Super Rugby season
INJURY UPDATE: The Stormers have suffered a couple of major blows heading into the final few weeks of Super Rugby.
Captain Siya Kolisi (knee) will miss the rest of the tournament, while Pieter-Steph du Toit (shoulder) could return to action for the Stormers’ final regular season match against the Sharks.
“For the moment it looks like Pieter-Steph will be out for about three weeks,” said Stormers head coach Robbie Fleck.
“Hopefully we can make that a little bit shorter, but he has been battling with a shoulder injury.
“Our target for him [Du Toit] should be the Sharks game.
“Siya will be a little bit longer. He will be out for four to six weeks, so he is finished with the campaign.”

The Stormers will also be without another loose forward in the form of Kobus van Dyk, who has been ruled out of action for up to 12 weeks.
The Cape side will take on the Lions in Johannesburg before finishing their campaign with two home games against the Sunwolves (June 8) and the Sharks (June 15).
