Star No 8 Evan Roos set for Stormers return in Munster URC clash

Springbok No 8 Evan Roos is set to make his return from injury when the Stormers host Irish side Munster in a URC clash in Cape Town on Saturday.

Roos suffered a knee injury against Ulster in late January. At the time it was feared that his season may be over, but luckily the injury was not as severe.

Roos has been picked on the bench for Saturday's clash, which kicks off at 18:15.

Stormers coach John Dobson made four changes to the starting line-up that lost 42-17 away to Exeter Chiefs in the Champions Cup quarter-finals last weekend.

The only change to the backline sees Paul de Wet start at scrumhalf in a rotational switch with Herschel Jantjies, who will feature off the bench.

Up front, Ruben van Heerden is back to partner Marvin Orie in the second row, while Hacjivah Dayimani and Willie Engelbrecht join Ben-Jason Dixon to form the loose trio.

15 Damian Willemse, 14 Suleiman Hartzenberg, 13 Ruhan Nel, 12 Dan du Plessis, 11 Seabelo Seabelo, 10 Manie Libbok, 9 Paul de Wet, 8 Hacjivah Dayimani, 7 Ben-Jason Dixon, 6 Willie Engelbrecht, 5 Marvin Orie, 4 Ruben van Heerden, 3 Frans Malherbe, 2 Joseph Dweba, 1 Steven Kitshoff (captain)

Substitutes: 16 JJ Kotze, 17 Ali Vermaak, 18 Neethling Fouche, 19 Ernst van Rhyn, 20 Marcel Theunissen, 21 Evan Roos, 22 Herschel Jantjies, 23 Clayton Blommetjies
