Coach Robbie Fleck has made three changes to the Stormers’ run-on XV ahead of their match against the Sharks at Kings Park on Saturday.
There are two personnel changes and a positional switch in the backline, where Craig Barry replaces SP Marais, while Dewaldt Duvenhage comes in at scrumhalf ahead of Jano Vermaak. Barry will play on the right wing, with Dillyn Leyds shifting to fullback.
In the only change up front, Sikhumbuzo Notshe gets the nod to start at No 8 in place of Nizaam Carr, who is relegated to the bench.
Utility back JJ Engelbrecht is the only new inclusion on the bench.
