Cross-code superstar Israelย Folauย says the chance forย World Cup redemption will be a major factor in his next career move, but admits he doesn't know if he will stay in rugby for another four years.
Folauย signed a three-year flexible contract to stay in Australian rugby while juggling stints in Japan to supplement his earnings.
Folau will be 30 by the time the next World Cup is played in Japan in 2019 and the NRL will almost certainly come knocking about a comeback when he comes off contract in 2018.
Asked if losing the World Cup final made him keen to have a crack at another one,ย Folauย said: "It's hard to say. I don't know what's going to happen in four yearsย time.
"I'm not signed for that long. It hurts now, but these are the sort of things you have to put behind you.ย As I come closer to that point in time to decide whether I want to stay on or not, it is something I have to consider: whether Iย have another crack at it."
