Match delayed: The Bulls v Stormers is set to kick off at 17:35 after the team bus was delayed getting to Loftus Versfeld due to a traffic jam.

The Bulls host the Stormers in the opening round of Super Rugby in the north v south derby and first all South African clash. Both sides will look to bounce back from disappointing campaigns in 2018, with neither able to make the play-offs as both recorded just six victories in their 16 matches. They also finished level on points, with the Stormers second bottom and Bulls bottom of the South African Conference. I'm Craig and will be taking you through the match with live updates and commentary.
