There are a number of changes to the DHL Stormers team for the final match of the regular season against Benetton in Stellenbosch on Friday (18h30).

Clayton Blommetjies is at fullback and Angelo Davids will start on the wing, with Damian Willemse moving to the midfield where he will partner Dan du Plessis.

Upfront, Evan Roos returns at No 8 with Hacjivah Dayimani moving to blindside flanker, and in the front row, prop Neethling Fouche and hooker JJ Kotze come into the starting line-up.

Rabz Maxwane and Ruan Venter are back in the Emirates Lions' starting team for their clash against Zebre in Pretoria (13h00), what will be Springbok flanker Jaco Kriel's final professional game to conclude a stellar career.
