Despite being an integral part of the All Blacks set-up, Blues winger Caleb Clarke has not yet given up on his Olympic dream.

Clarke made his All Blacks breakthrough in stunning fashion last year on the back of an outstanding Super Rugby Aotearoa season.

The 21-year-old has become a mainstay for the Blues side who take on the Crusaders in a top-of-the-table clash.

Clarke says he has not made a decision yet on his availability for Tokyo but admits he has not cast aside his Olympic ambitions just because of his success in the 15-men code.

He says the Olympics is a once in a lifetime thing for a lot of athletes and it definitely still appeals him.

The Blues take on the Crusaders at 2.35pm Sunday while the Hurricanes face the Chiefs at 6.05pm Saturday.
