John Dobson admits the Stormers simply could not afford to let a player of Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu’s influence slip through their fingers.
The Springbok flyhalf has signed a long-term contract extension with the Stormers that will keep him in Cape Town until at least July 2029.
“I don’t think we could’ve lost him to this franchise with how he plays.”

The 23-year-old’s long-term commitment is a defining moment for the Stormers’ planning, anchoring a squad built around elite, homegrown talent.
Feinberg-Mngomezulu’s extension follows the retention of key figures such as Damian Willemse and Evan Roos, while the likes of Ntuthuko Mchunu have also been added to strengthen the core.

“We didn’t think we’d be taking that seriously if we didn’t keep some of the players like Damian Willemse, Sacha,” Dobson said.
“We made the signing of Tuks Mchunu, Evan Roos was in high demand and some of the players coming up. It’s important for ‘Project 29’ that we keep these guys around.”
