Stormers delay call on injured Burger

The Stormers will wait till just before the game to make a call on whether flank Schalk Burger will play a role in the game or not.

 

Burger suffered a groin injury during training at Newlands on Thursday and the Stormers will wait until an hour before kick-off to see if he can pass a fitness test.

 

Head coach Allister Coetzee has until 16.00 to hand in his final squad sheet to the game manager.

 

Burger was included in the Stormers' starting line-up for the clash, but if he doesn't pass a late fitness test then he would drop out of the matchday-23 and the likely replacement would be Michael Rhodes with Sikhumbuzo Notshe coming onto the bench as a loose forward replacement.
