John Dobson has confirmed that Sergeal Petersen will replace the injured Leolin Zas when the Stormers face the Vodacom Bulls in the Vodacom United Rugby Championship final in Cape Town on Saturday.It was confirmed on Wednesday that Zas will go under the knife on the ankle injury he sustained in the first half of the semi-final victory over Edinburgh.
However, when asked about the situation during a press conference on Wednesday, Dobson made it clear who the Stormers would pick as their left wing..Dobson explained that Petersen would offer fullback Warrick Gelant a bit more security at the back, especially as the Bulls have not been shy of putting boot to ball in the regular season.
“What is good for me is that they are both very good under the high ball. You have a guy now with Warrick who communicates. Warrick can pass to him and let Sergeal make a decision. Sergeal can also produce the odd X-factor magic.
