Stormers coach John Dobson proudly reflected on his team’s triumphant journey to the United Rugby Championship title but admitted he thought it might be derailed at the start. After his team’s 18-13 win in the final against the Bulls in Cape Town, Dobson cast his mind back to the opening week of the tournament when he was on a train outside Venice and it was brought to his attention the Stormers were in danger of being jettisoned from the tournament.
They had been underperforming for some time, had just lost to Benetton, the franchise was in dire financial straights, and due to its boardroom upheaval its administration was taken over by SA Rugby.“It is an incredible story, where we came from. Someone phoned me saying SA might pull us out of the URC. A journalist called saying we were going to be replaced by the Cheetahs.”
The magic moment. Incredible to share it with the Faithful at DHL Stadium. Thanks to every one of you for your support. You make us more than just a rugby team.
