The Stormers have bulked up with their returning Springbok stars for Friday night's United Rugby Championship clash against table-topping Leinster in Dublin.
Steven Kitshoff comes straight back into the starting line-up as captain while Frans Malherbe and Marvin Orie are also included in the starting pack. In another sign of Stormers depth and strength, Hacjivah Dayimani returns to the starting line-up from injury at No 8 with Deon Fourie and Ben-Jason Dixon on the flanks.
"It is great to have these Boks back in the mix this week and we are looking forward to seeing what they bring in what will be a tough game away from home," coach John Dobson said. "It has been some time since some of these players featured for us, so hopefully the game time will stand them all in good stead as we head towards the end of the season.
