Springboks captain Jean de Villiers has recovered from his injury and will lead the Stormers against the Bulls this Sunday.

The Stormers will just play for pride as table leaders the Bulls, Brumbies, defending champions Chiefs, Crusaders, Reds and Cheetahs have secured their playoff spots.

Meanwhile, only the Bulls, Brumbies, Chiefs and Crusaders have a chance of finishing in the top two, meaning they will have a home semifinal and a bye in the playoffs next weekend.

The playoff fixtures will be finalized after this week’s final round where the Crusaders meet the Hurricanes at 7.35pm tomorrow while the Rebels play the Highlanders at 9.40pm.

On Saturday the Blues host the Chiefs at 7:35pm and the Waratahs face the Reds at 9:40pm.
