No. The side panel has the stripes

You don't have a flyhalf and your team is performing fairly well.

Elton? He wears a 10 on his back and he stands between the scrumhalf and the inside centre, but he certainly is not a flyhalf boet.

The Stormers have confirmed the signing of former Springbok and Bulls centre JJ Engelbrecht ahead of the 2018 season.

Engelbrecht will make his return to Cape Town – where he played his junior rugby – once he has concluded his commitments with Japanese side Toyota Industries Shuttles, while the Stormers have also signed young flyhalf Joshua Stander and prop Neethling Fouche from the Bulls.

Lol

The only thing make locally is their jersey

Injured, possibly career ending hip and groin problems

Last report I read is that he was making good progress and would be ready to go for SR.

If Jean-Luc du Plessis was sure of making a comeback from his injury next year the situation at flyhalf for WP wouldn’t be so problematic, but there are fears that the groin problems that have led to a series of operations may prevent the young son of former Bok wing Carel from ever playing again.

2011 Stormers

2012–2015 Blue Bulls
2015–present Toyota Industries Shuttles
2016–present Ospreys

You mean 6 years ago

Seriously, can you imagine kids playing at school and shouting that name out as they score a try?

beachboy wrote:I remember when JJ and Johann Sadie took the money and ran to the Bulls. They expected province to match the salaries which would have given them more money than the senior players ( they were both juniors at the time) and province had to say no for team unity. Many of us predicted they would not do well in the Bull environment, which turned out to be true.

JJ had raw talent at the time and much like Handre Pollard (and many other youngsters) they thought they had already made it when in fact they were still at the early stages of learning the game. If he has matured I predict we will make a star of him.

What's even funnier is that just like Jesse, you rated JJ highly as well. And wait...you were trolling right?

Agreed. Should never have been moved form wing.

Cape Town - The Stormers have secured a loan deal with Griquas flyhalf George Whitehead.

READ: Stormers secure services of Bulls duo

WP Rugby confirmed the agreement to Netwerk24 on Wednesday after the player joined the Stormers’ pre-season training squad.

The Cape franchise’s flyhalf stocks look decidedly thin following the departure of Robert du Preez to the Sharks.

It’s uncertain when Jean-Luc du Plessis, who underwent a hip operation last year, will regain full fitness which leaves only Damian Willemse and Joshua Stander as flyhalves in the squad.

The 24-year-old Stander, who had represented the Bulls since 2013, was signed late last year.

Whitehead, 28, has spent time at the Cheetahs, Kings and Griffons before joining Griquas in 2017.

The Stormers open their 2018 Super Rugby campaign at home against the Jaguares on Saturday, February 17.

If social media reports are to be believed, Springbok lock Eben Etzebeth will spend several months on the sidelines.

There was no confirmation from the Stormers camp, but twitter was abuzz on Friday with suggestions that the second row forward was "probably out for the whole season".

With Eben out for probably the whole of SR JD Shickerling has a massive opportunity to push for higher honours.


Etzebeth was injured on the Boks' year-end tour and forced off the field just before half-time in the 22-24 loss to Wales in Cardiff on December 2.

The Bok medical staff confirmed at the time that he would "see a specialist" in Cape Town to further examine his shoulder and back injuries.
