Following their 23-19 United Rugby Championship (URC) win over the Bulls at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday, the Stormers are on track for a clean sweep of local derbies, certainly no easy feat if they accomplish it.

Stormers coach John Dobson lauded his side's defence and never-say-die attitude.Their next clash is against the Sharks in Cape Town on Saturday, 4 March, and Dobson and his charges have an eye on winning the URC SA Shield for the second time.That, and a clean sweep against local sides, is something that's not lost on Dobson."We have the Sharks game next, and if we get that right, we've got a clean sweep of the local derbies, which would be brilliant for us," Dobson said when speaking to media after the Bulls clash."We probably need another win from the last four games to get the SA Shield, which I'm sure we'll get, and that's important for us."You want to be the best team in South Africa, and we're getting very close to that, given our results."If we can win the Shield two years in a row, it'll be a great feather in the cap for this union and the team,” said Dobson.
