The 25-year-old, who is able to play at both lock and flank, will add valuable depth to the Stormers’ forward stocks.

The former Junior Springbok stands at two metres and will offer crucial versatility in the Stormers jersey.

Head Coach John Dobson said that Stassen has been training hard and is keen to make an impact for the Stormers.

“Hendre has shown a great attitude since joining us, he is a hard-worker who is ready to give everything for the team.

“We are looking forward to seeing the impact he can make both in the second row and on the side of the scrum for us,” he said.

Stassen said that he is very happy to be starting this new chapter in Cape Town.
