Cape Town - Springbok lock Eben Etzebeth has paid tribute to Stormers captain Siya Kolisi ahead of his 100th Super Rugby match.
Kolisi will reach the special milestone when he leads his side out to take on the Bulls at Newlands in a crucial clash on Saturday.
Etzebeth, meanwhile, remains sidelined as he continues his recovery from a shoulder injury that has kept him out for the season so far.
The Stormers are hopeful that a return to action is just around the corner for the towering No 4, but on Saturday he will be supporting from the stands.
Etzebeth took to Instagram to pay tribute to Kolisi.
"Wish I could have been your teammate today," Etzebeth wrote.
"You've been a inspiration to many people and it's been a privilege to have been there since day 1!"
Stormers hooker Scarra Ntubeni, meanwhile, will earn his 50th Super Rugby cap when he comes off the bench.
Kick-off is at 15:05.
