Forever Young

The evergreen Radiki Samo, talking to the Sydney Morning Herald's Josh Rakic, eulogises about his World Cup dream.

"Four days after inspiring the Wallabies to their drought-breaking Tri Nations defeat of the All Blacks and installing himself as the new cult figure of Australian rugby, back-rower Radike Samo has declared his best is still ahead of him.

Having just signed a new two-year contract with the Reds that will see him through until his 37th birthday, the bro with the 'fro said he felt fresher than ever after scoring his first Test try last Saturday night - beating All Blacks speedsters Cory Jane and Mils Muliaina to do so.

''That's probably one of [my] best tries since I turned professional,'' Samo said. ''I didn't know that they were chasing me. I just did my best to get to the try line and I did that. I was looking around for supporters to pass the ball but looked left and right and saw two black jerseys, so I just kept going.'"
