Matfield: Manie’s probably the best
Victor Matfield says Manie Libbok is the Springboks’ go-to flyhalf if they want to “open it up” against the All Blacks in Baltimore on Saturday.
Libbok was thrust into the third Test at FNB Stadium in the ninth minute when fullback Cheslin Kolbe suffered a broken jaw.
Starting flyhalf Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu shifted to 15 after returning from an early stint in the sin bin, allowing Libbok to continue at 10 as the world champions claimed a 29-24 victory to take a 2-1 series lead into Saturday’s finale in the USA.
WATCH: How Cheslin broke his jaw
Speaking on the Rugby Rivals podcast, Matfield said Feinberg-Mngomezulu, who has started all three Tests of the series at flyhalf, is experiencing a more challenging period after an outstanding 2025 Test campaign.
“Sacha has the X factor, he’s going through that second-year syndrome when the first year everything just worked, whereas now he has to work for it.”
Feinberg-Mngomezulu was yellow-carded for a deliberate knock-on at FNB Stadium, but the former Bok lock was encouraged by his contribution at fullback in the second half.
“He really stepped up, even though he was at 15. Those kicks he had to make and his physicality on defence is unbelievable.”
BIG VIC: Boks just had another gear
But if the Boks want to unleash their attack in Baltimore, Matfield believes Libbok offers something different.
“In Manie we’ve got a 10 that if you want to open it up, I think he’s probably the best,” he said.
“He loves to call for the ball, he loves to get width on attack and we scored both of our tries with him giving those long passes to the outside.”
OPINION: Greatest Rivalry can get even better
Despite that endorsement, Matfield still expects Feinberg-Mngomezulu to remain the Boks’ first-choice flyhalf.
“He just needs to work through this second-year syndrome,” he said. “That always happens because the expectation is so high of him to just go out there and do magic.
“I think he will need to learn how to build pressure and when the opportunity comes, you take it, because he’s got all the skills for that.”
The Springbok team for the fourth Test will be named at 8pm (SA time) on Monday.

Riley returns for Stormers refresher
Riley Norton is among several returning players named in the Stormers’ 29-man squad for Friday’s pre-season clash against the Vodacom Bulls in Paarl.
The former Junior Boks captain was earmarked to make his Springbok Test debut after an impressive outing against the Barbarians in June, but a hamstring injury prevented him from doing so against England at Ellis Park.
Norton, JD Schickerling, Jurie Matthee, Olly Reid, Sazi Sandi and Lukhanyo Vokozela have all recovered from their respective injuries and will get valuable game time at Faure Street Stadium (3:30pm kick-off).

The Stormers will also give backs André Warner and Lleyton Davids an opportunity as John Dobson’s side steps up its preparations for the new URC season. They get their campaign underway with a tough assignment against Connacht in Galway on 25 September.
Dobson believes the Bulls clash will provide important preparation after an intense training camp in Hermanus.
“We’ve made some good plans and put in some hard work in training, but there is nothing like match situations against quality opposition to show you where you really stand.
“We are also using this match to bring a fair number of players back from injury and give them some game time.”
