Fiery Springbok loose forward Evan Roos is a doubtful starter for the Stormers in Saturday’s United Rugby Championship (URC) clash against the Dragons in Gqeberha.
The No 8 suffered a rib injury in the Boks’ 27-13 win against England at Twickenham on Saturday and will go for scans in Cape Town on Wednesday. A big crowd is expected to watch the first URC game to be played at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium .
“Evan is going for scans as soon as he lands. We are not sure if it is broken or not. We will hear from the specialist, then we can give the correct information. “There are certain guys who have played a lot, and we will probably give them a rest. A few have played as much, so they will probably filter in as soon they come into the country.”
