Two-time World Cup-winning prop Frans Malherbe has his sights set on a significant milestone in his already illustrious Springbok career.
The unheralded Malherbe’s panda-like appearance belies one of the world’s great scrum anchors and a Bok powerhouse with an unbelievable work rate on defence.
“It would be an incredible privilege to get to 100 Tests,” he said. “I’m definitely going to keep playing as long as I can.”Malherbe, who debuted for South Africa in 2013, has already earned 76 caps and hopes to continue his career through the next World Cup in 2027. However, he remains grounded, stating, “There is still a lot of rugby to be played before then. I’m not looking too far ahead.”
“The reason why I haven’t gone overseas yet is because SARU and the Stormers are watching me closely,” he explained. “Credit and thanks to SARU and the Stormers who take good care of me.”
