The Stormers will be without captain Siya Kolisi and Springbok utility forward Pieter-Steph du Toit for their match against the Jaguares in Buenos Aires.
Du Toit, who is expected to be fit for next weekend’s match against the Crusaders, has been ruled out of the trip due to the shoulder injury he picked up in the victory over the Vodacom Bulls last weekend, while Kolisi has been rested according to Springbok protocols.
They are joined on the sidelines by tighthead prop Frans Malherbe, who has also been rested, and Ernst van Rhyn, who has an elbow injury.
Loose forwards Jaco Coetzee and Sikhumbuzo Notshe have both recovered from injuries and have been included in their 25-man squad.
Stormers squad to Argentina: Jaco Coetzee, Damian de Allende, Jean-Luc du Plessis, Johan du Toit, JJ Engelbrecht, Eben Etzebeth, Neethling Fouche, Corne Fourie, Herschel Jantjies, Steven Kitshoff, Dan Kriel, Michael Kumbirai, Dillyn Leyds, Wilco Louw, Bongi Mbonambi, Sikhumbuzo Notshe, Scarra Ntubeni, Sergeal Petersen, Justin Phillips, JD Schickerling, Seabelo Senatla, Josh Stander, Kobus van Dyk, Cobus Wiese, Damian Willemse.
