Juarno Augustus is back on familiar soil, and by all accounts, he is loving every minute of it. The Ulster back row is preparing to face his former club the Stormers in South Africa, a matchup that carries a little extra meaning for the Namibia-born forward.
The return comes after a period on the sidelines. Augustus has been working his way back from ankle surgery, and the timing of his recovery puts him right in the thick of what promises to be an emotional reunion with the club he once called home.
There is something poetic about coming back stronger, and in a place that shaped you. All eyes will be on Augustus when Ulster and the Stormers meet.
