Hawies Fourie says there is much to sort out before Pieter-Steph du Toit and Damian de Allende’s potential move to the Boland Cavaliers “becomes a reality”.
The head coach has spoken to their agent, while Boland has been exploring whether it could make the moves work financially.
The two Springbok centurions are reportedly open to playing for the Cavaliers after several years in Japan’s Rugby League One.
“Currently, we are trying to see if we can make it work. Obviously Boland doesn’t have a big budget, and we don’t play in international competitions,” Fourie told Rugby365.

“It’s not an easy thing to make work. Both of them are returning from Japan, and I think they both will live in Val de Vie, which is quite close to us.”
Fourie stressed Boland needs to consider its salary cap, squad numbers and how often Du Toit and De Allende would be available to play.
“There’s still a lot to be done before it becomes a reality,” he added.
“Both of them have shown interest in joining Boland while they are still involved with the Springboks, and it will be great for us if we can make it happen.”
