An emotional Sam Tomkins says he 'lived his dream' after playing his last game in Catalans Dragons' defeat in the Super League Grand Final against Wigan Warriors.
Sam Tomkins was denied a fairytale finish to his career, but the Catalans Dragons full-back was able to look back with pride despite the 10-2 defeat to Wigan Warriors in the Betfred Super League Grand Final. The 2023 showpiece at Old Trafford saw the 34-year-old bring the curtain down on a 15-year career which saw him win three Super League Grand Finals, lift the Challenge Cup twice, and captain England while earning 29 international caps.
' Tomkins may yet retain some involvement with Catalans in a yet-to-be-specified off-field role, but his immediate focus after bring his playing career to a close is on spending more time with his family.'Sometimes you have to be a bit selfish as an athlete and this year I've had to be a bit more selfish than I would have liked,' Tomkins said.
