Flank Luke Watson and lock Quinton Davids have both been included in the Western Province team to play the French Barbarians at the Danie Craven Stadium in Stellenbosch tomorrow.
The Stormers duo will give the team a welcome injection of experience against opposition studded with players that have performed at the highest stage.
Tomorrow's match will also mark the return of loose forward Hendrik Gerber after he missed the Super 12 with a neck injury. Gerber has been included on the bench and is expected to see some action.
However, scrumhalf Neil de Kock (ankle) and No 8 Adri Badenhorst (shoulder) are both sidelined for the week.
Lock Andries Bekker (shoulder), prop Riaan Olckers (ankle) and utility back Gaffie du Toit (ankle) are all still on the injured list.
Kick-off for tomorrow's match is at 3pm. Tickets are R10 and are available during office hours from the sports office, Jannie Marais huis, Coetzenburg, and at the Danie Craven Stadium gate tomorrow from 12h30.
