Stormers lose Springbok De Allende for 12 weeks
By Tom Webber
Stormers centre Damian de Allende will spend approximately 12 weeks out of action with an ankle injury.
The South Africa international sustained the issue in the second half of Saturday's 37-24 Super Rugby victory over Bulls on Saturday.
The 25-year-old joins Scarra Ntubeni, Leolin Zas and Juan de Jongh on the sidelines.
De Allende could miss up to 11 games for Stormers, meaning he is unlikely to have any match practice before the Springboks take on France in a three-match Test series in June.

Hum, for "the barnstorming try" , he had run 4 or 5 meters before the hooker throwed the ball....
Even if he was very good in this game.
Go to commentsI’ve never read such bull, I went back to the top of the article and saw that it was written by Ben Smith - no worries; makes sense now.
I realised that it was tripe when he started saying that a lock had only made half as many tackles as the world’s greatest flanker! Apples and oranges!
