PUBLISHED: July 25, 2018


The widely reported on Stormers management team issue was addressed at the highest level in a meeting including; the President of WPRFU Mr Thelo Wakefield, Group CEO Mr Paul Zacks, Director of Rugby Mr Gert Smal and all the coaching staff.

“A fruitful and amicable meeting was held today, with all members committed to finding solutions. Today’s meeting took the form of a fact finding and diagnostic exercise, forming part of our season review process,” said Wakefield.

“The team management matter in our opinion has been overly amplified in the media and is clearly an internal personnel matter that will be resolved.

“We believe that we have an exceptional group for next season and want to ensure all issues and potential stumbling blocks are dealt with and clarity provided where required, to ensure we have the best possible chance in the Super Rugby competition next season.

“We are convinced that as part of our overall season review, the process started today will undoubtedly assist in us attaining that goal,” he added.

No further comment will be issued by any of the parties until the review process has been completed.
