Edinburgh will be the only northern-hemisphere team visiting South Africa when they take on the Stormers at Cape Town Stadium on Saturday, 9 June.
It is likely that from that team that played in Edinburgh in round three, only two forwards – Salmaan Moerat and Evan Roos – will be in the starting lineup for the quarter-final clash. Kitshoff, Malherbe, Orie and loose forwards Deon Fourie and Hacjivah Dayimani have all been crucial to the Stormers’ success since returning to the team this year.
“The Stormers props are going well. Steven Kitshoff speaks for himself, he is doing really well. Frans Malherbe gets paid the big bucks because he is a good tighthead and Neethling Fouche has done very well, especially this season. Even at the game at the DAM Health, their set piece was on point. We also put a lot of work and emphasis into our set piece.
