Sam Tomkins for the Daily Mail's recent articles

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: I'm desperate to add the World Cup to my Grand Final and Challenge Cup triumphs... and I can't wait to beat Australia in the opener at Cardiff

23/10/13 07:54

There are only a few days to go before we take on Australia at the Millennium Stadium. I’m incredibly excited by the prospect of walking out in front of a big crowd and singing the national anthem. We want to get our campaign off to a winning start – and we are confident we can do that. ...read

SAM TOMKINS: I'm ready for a big NRL welcome, and I know it won't be with a handshake... but first I want a fairytale finals finish at Wigan

Champion: Sam Tomkins is gunning for a fairytale ending to his Wigan career before he moves to New Zealand

25/09/13 16:41

Sam Tomkins tells Sportsmail about his world record move from Wigan to New Zealand, how he'll handle the NRL's welcoming committee and his unfinished Super League business. 'I'm greedy - I want the fairytale ending... I want to win the Grand Final and lift the World Cup Trophy.' ...read

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: It's great being part of the Dream Team again but now my team Wigan are looking to secure a Giant play-off victory (and I'd love a horse named after me, please)

The Dream Team: Sam Tomkins (right) and the 12 other outstanding Super League players of this season

11/09/13 12:13

The Super League play-offs start tonight and we travel to Huddersfield Giants for a key match against the League Leaders' Shield winners. We may have lost to Leeds Rhinos last week – and to be fair they were very impressive – but the game meant very little and hasn’t affected our mind-set ahead of a huge match. ...read

August 2013

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: Winning trophies never gets old - now our challenge is to win some more... and it's great that Rooney is going nowhere

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: Why winning the league doesn't mean a thing... I really am battling to get back on the pitch... and Suarez, Bale and Rooney should move on, their careers are short, there's no point them showing blind loyalty

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: We're off to Wembley and I'm looking forward to a classic Challenge Cup final... and Bale is world class but no sportsman is worth £87m

July 2013

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: After calling wins for Murray and the Lions, here's another bold prediction... England will win the World Cup (and it's just 100 days until it starts on home soil)

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: BOD is a rugby God and I'm shocked he's been dropped by the Lions - but they'll still take the series, Murray will win Wimbledon... and I can't wait for my Italian job

June 2013

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: I'll never forget meeting Superman but I can't wait to get back to tackling the real men of steel... and it'll be great to see Mourinho back ruffling feathers in English football

May 2013

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: Last weekend was just magic - although Rovers were right to be mad at sorry Steve... I'm being talked up but there's a way to go before I'm one of the world's best... and Froch v Kessler showed sport at its finest

SAM TOMKINS: What a man Sir Alex is, I took his advice and look at me now - I can't stop scoring tries... and I won't quit England like Rio but I have put myself in the shop window

April 2013

SAM TOMKINS: It'll be a different challenge but Wigan want repeat of Hull KR thrashing and England can match Aussies and Kiwis at World Cup

SAM TOMKINS COLUMN: View from the top is very nice after being written off, I don't think Powell will be joining Wigan (sorry), Rio and Co will be gutted by United's derby defeat ... and why Bradley is the Master

March 2013

SAM TOMKINS: Our game isn't like football, it needs flamboyant owners like Salford's to generate headlines... and I know how Rooney must have felt watching on against Real Madrid

February 2013

SAM TOMKINS: This is the biggest year in our sport's history and I can't wait to give the Aussies a World Cup beating
