How the Stormers and the Lions can make a Super start

CAPE TOWN – It's Super Rugby season again, and today we take a look at what the Stormers and the Lions need to do to make a solid start in this year's competitions. Ask anyone who’s been to Argentina to play rugby what it is like and they’ll tell you it’s not the best place on Earth to take on the home team. The fans are aggressive and intimidating and they, with their team, make life very difficult for a visitor.

However, it was the Lions’ first win in BA; they lost on the three other occasions they visited. And, let’s also not forget, the Jaguares will be pumped up after playing in the final last year.The Lions’ hosts are very much like the French; if they get on top and they get in the mood, they’re very hard to stop. But, if they go behind early on and are a little out-of-sorts, you can punish them.
