It looks like rugby talent runs in the family.
CJ Stander’s brother, Janneman will captain South African side the SWD Eagles in their pre-season friendly match against the Stormers in George on Saturday.
The 23-year-old, who like his older brother is also a back-row forward, has represented SWD’s senior team since 2014.
While his brother lines out against the Stormers, CJ will be lining out for Ireland in the Six Nations against Scotland.
I wonder does Janneman have any interest in coming to Munster? If he’s even half as good as his brother, we’re pretty sure Munster would have him!
Proud of my brother captaining his side against the Stormers this weekend 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 https://t.co/ZxgvFgxfKV
