Forgotten Test-capped flyhalf Robert du Preez hasn't given up on his Springbok aspirations and wants to reopen the lines of communication with the national coaches.
, the 29-year-old pivot said: “Playing for the Boks is always in the back of your mind, I’d love to add to the tally of one but my focus is at Sale, to do as well as I can here and, if I do well, hopefully I can get a look-in but they obviously do have great flyhalves.
“They have got Handre [Pollard] and Elton [Jantjies] … but it will always be in the back of my mind, will always be something that I want to do again. “There was a brief moment pre-pandemic, post-pandemic that I was in a WhatsApp group and could chat to [assistant coach] Felix [Jones], he’d do little reviews on your game and send you clips and stuff like that. But that would have been the last time that I had contact.”
