Two of the Vodacom United Rugby Championship’s finest minds, Leo Cullen and John Dobson, have committed long-term to their respective clubs and will face off in what is bound to be the start of a new rivalry when Leinster host the DHL Stormers.

The top-of-the-table clash sees unbeaten Leinster welcome the defending champions DHL Stormers for the first-ever clash between the two teams at the RDS Arena in Dublin.When these two teams faced each other for the first time in round 17 last season, it was the champions-elect who claimed a hard-fought 20-13 victory against a Leinster side missing a bulk of Ireland internationals.

Like Cullen, Cape Town-raised Dobson is a man of his province. The son of the late Paul Dobson, a highly-respected former referee, teacher and author, John had a relatively modest playing career as a hooker for Western Province, but was a stalwart for his club side the University of Cape Town. Dobson’s teams have always been renowned for their eye-catching brand of rugby, which is a reflection of the way the game has been played in the Western Cape for generations.
