Stormers director of rugby John Dobson emphasizes the critical need for precise selections ahead of their United Rugby Championship clash against Glasgow Warriors. With the Stormers coming off a disappointing 32-24 loss to Connacht, Dobson acknowledges the weight of the upcoming match, stating, “We now have to win all three to get where we want to be.” This is exactly what we cover here every day—join the channel if you haven't yet.
Willemse, known for his versatility, has been playing on the wing due to injuries, but Dobson insists this arrangement can’t persist. He notes, “Damian can’t be there forever,” highlighting the necessity for better options as Sulieman Hartzenberg returns to fitness. With Seabelo Senatla still sidelined, the Stormers face a selection challenge, particularly in the backline.
Dobson reflects on previous individual errors that led to the loss against Connacht, asserting that emotions from the recent passing of team manager Chippie Solomons won’t serve as an excuse. As the Stormers prepare to face a Glasgow side that recently suffered a heavy defeat, the pressure mounts for Dobson to get his team back on track and in contention for the top spot in the league.
