As question marks continue to linger over the Springboks' flyhalf options, Stormers general Manie Libbok admitted to still having dreams of playing for the national team, but for the time being, will focus all his energy on the United Rugby Championship.
The current situation has triggered a lot of conversation on whether Libbok might get a look heading into the November internationals."At the moment, I'm just trying to control what I can control and that's to do my very best for the Stormers and this jersey and that is to put out the best performance for the team," the 25-year-old said.
"Everything else will take care of itself. It's always been and still is my dream to play for the Springboks one day and if the time comes now, I'd be grateful for that."Libbok was relieved of his kicking duties this past weekend due to a sore knee, and during his media duties, he revealed that he's in a better position now than he was a week ago.
