Season Ahead

Loftus Bites Back

Two from two became two from three in twenty-nine first-half minutes at Loftus Versfeld.

Toulouse at 10bet Ellis Park, 12 December 2026.

We Belong Here

The Lions did not sneak into the Investec Champions Cup. They earned it by winning a trophy and reaching a quarter-final — and they are not going to Europe to make up the numbers.

Francke Horn leads his team out onto the pitch 30_5_2026.

A Place Earned, Not Inherited

Toulouse. Saracens. La Rochelle. Exeter Chiefs. Connacht. All confirmed, all fixtured — and not one of them won a European trophy last season.

Suites and hospitality at 10bet Ellis Park.

The Best Seats in Johannesburg

Two Champions Cup afternoons, nine URC fixtures and a stadium with a portfolio behind it.
