SPOTLIGHT: Stormers director of rugby John Dobson has revealed how he is managing his Springbok stars with Siya Kolisi's presence already making a positive impact both on and off the field.

Stormers director of rugby John Dobson has explained how he manages his Springbok stars as Siya Kolisi prepares to make his return. The 35-year-old flanker will make his first Stormers appearance in over five years when starting against Edinburgh on Friday at Hive Stadium. Kolisi joined the team on tour after flying from Perth and will earn his 119th cap for the franchise.
While Kolisi was eager to integrate immediately, Dobson opted to rest several other key Springboks following a demanding international schedule. Players including Damian Willemse, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, Deon Fourie, Paul de Villiers, and Cheslin Kolbe were left out to recuperate before upcoming fixtures.
