The Stormers have made four changes to their Super 12 rugby team to play the Hurricanes at Palmerston North on Friday.
Coach Gert Smal on Wednesday announced two changes in the outside backs and two in the forwards as his team chase their first win in the final match of a four-game overseas tour.
Werner Greeff replaces Gaffie du Toit at fullback while Breyton Paulse comes onto the right wing in place Tonderai Chavhanga from the side who lost to the New South Wales Waratahs in Sydney on Saturday.
Up front, Hanyani Shimange will start at hooker ahead of Pieter Dixon while Luke Watson replaces flanker Joe van Niekerk, who has an injured knee.
The seventh-placed Stormers haven’t tasted success since their opening round defeat of the Sharks while the fourth-placed Hurricanes suffered their first loss of the competition last weekend to the Bulls after opening with three wins.
