Stormers still tops as Munster stumble

Published

on

Munster’s failure to beat Leinster in Limerick means the Stormers end 2025 to the Vodacom United Rugby Championship, three points ahead of Munster and with a game in hand.

The South African teams postponed their derby matches of last weekend until 2026, but will resume this weekend, with the Stormers hosting the Bulls and the Sharks at home to the Lions.
The Stormers are expecting a sell out crowd of 52 000 for the Bulls visit.

Bok coaches answer Bulls’ SOS
