Record-setting James Slipper insists age is no barrier as the veteran prop plots a shock comeback to international rugby at 37.
Already Australia's most-capped player with 151 Test appearances, Slipper has declared his availability for the Wallabies' three Nations Championship matches next month - and possibly beyond.
After answering an SOS call from Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt, the loosehead isn't ruling out carrying on through to the 2027 Rugby World Cup on home soil.
"At this stage, yeah, just for the July series and then there's a few things again working out behind the scenes, like I want to keep playing next year," Slipper told journalists in Sydney.
After hanging up his Wallabies boots following last year's Rugby Championship, Slipper enjoyed another strong Super Rugby Pacific campaign with the Brumbies and has signed on for another next season.
