Cape Town - Blitzboks speedster Rosko Specman has been included in the Dream Team for the Las Vegas Sevens.
Specman was a star performer at the event as the South Africans claimed their fourth tournament win in the 2016/17 World Rugby Sevens Series.
Specman was named Player of Final as the Blitzboks beat Fiji 19-12 to claim the grand prize.
He then also received Dream Team honours, the only South African to crack the nod this week.
The rest of the Dream Team consisted of two Fijians - Jerry Tuwai and Mesulame Kunavula - two Kiwis - DJ Forbes and Vilimoni Koroi - as well as Australia’s Lachie Anderson and America’s Danny Barrett.
