Burger always gives his best


Stand-in Stormers captain Schalk Burger said he gave his 110 percent regardless whether he was captain or not.

Burger has lead the men since Jean de Villiers was injured against the Hurricanes in Wellington two weeks ago.

Burger and his boys have tough test ahead when they face the Chiefs at Newlands on Saturday.



The New Zealander's will want nothing less than a victory to increase their chances at getting a home semi-final.

Meanwhile, Burger said his team needed to produce results as their Super 14 campaign was about to end.


"You try and do the best your best all the time and unfortunately we as team have had a long tough season. Hopefully we can pull together and get a couple of victories."

Stormers coach Rassie Erasmus identified the Chief's open play as their biggest weapon ahead of the fixture.

Erasmus added he thought the biggest battle on the field will be amongst the forwards.

"Their scrums and line-outs is something that has really improved on since last year. The break down between our loose forwards and their loose forwards is going to be a great encounter."
