The feel good story of the rugby league world cup. One of the toughest forwards of the modern game, Civoniceva played 33 origins for queensland and 45 tests for australia and now the 37 year old will captain his home country fiji in the rugby league world cup to ultimately end his wonderful career. He moved to Australia at the age of six months as his parents wanted better opportunity for him and now according to Petero "I get the opportunity to thank them for that and that is obviously to honour my heritage and learn more about it". Forget about the hype surrounding the burgess boys or Italy's minichello brothers and the absence of kiwi sensation benji marshall or the shock inclusion of SBW, Petero Civoniceva should be the main headline of the world cup.
