Bakkies Botha - Is it an April Fools Joke or for real

There is a report that if Toulon goes out in the Heineken Cup - Botha will return to SA to play for the Stormers.   The Stormers are desperately short of half-decent locks and Botha may be a of some value for them.  However, he will be involved in Super 15 rugby - not club rugby - and I do not expect miracles from him.
