DHL Stormers XXIII announce lineup changes for Pumas clash

The DHL Stormers XXIII have announced five changes to their starting lineup for their upcoming Carling Currie Cup match against the Airlink Pumas at Mbombela Stadium this Saturday.

Four of the changes occur in the forward pack, with props Mhleli Khuzwayo and Herman Lubbe, and loose forwards Wandile Mlaba and Keke Morabe all earning starting spots. In the backline, Joel Leotlela will make his first appearance of the season on the wing, replacing Suleiman Hartzenberg, who is sidelined for approximately one week due to rib bruising.

Head Coach Tom Dawson-Squibb noted that a final decision regarding fullback Dylan Miller's participation will be made late, as the player is currently managing a minor injury. Dawson-Squibb emphasized the need for an 80-minute performance to secure a victory during the challenging away trip to Mbombela.
