Stormers Confident of Jean's Fitness



The Vodacom Stormers believe their inspirational captain Jean de Villiers will be fit to take on the Highlanders at Newlands tomorrow.

The skipper's been out with flu all week and there are genuine concerns of whether or not he'll be fit to lead the side. In the case of him not being well-enough to take the field, Peter Grant will no doubt fill the void at inside centre.

Coach Rassie Erasmus has made six changes to the team, with Schalk Ferreira making his seasonal debut at prop in place of the injured JD Moller.

Kick off is at 17:00 tomorrow.
