Finally able to put his best foot forward with the Socceroos after years of injury hell, Mathew Leckie is adamant he's not slowing down and has plenty to give if selected for a fourth World Cup.
Leckie has never played under coach Tony Popovic due to recurring soft-tissue injuries.
But he returned for Melbourne City at the back end of the season before earning a call-up to the training camp after a mammoth 120-minute elimination final midfield shift against Auckland.
Leckie has been in the thick of Australia's gruelling pre-World Cup training camp, which the 35-year-old described as a "mini pre-season" in hot and humid Sarasota.
"It's been very different to what I was used to, obviously, it almost felt like it was my first time into camp again," Leckie said on Friday.
