The Green and Gold doubled their lead after 30 minutes when Tony Williams scored a try after he collected a kick. Again, Thurston completed the kick.

Thurston himself touched down four minutes later after good work by Williams to make the half-time score 16-0.

New Zealand were transformed in the second half and began their fightback on 49 minutes after the video referee adjudged Jason Nightingale to have touched the ball down.

Kalifa FaiFai Loa reduced the deficit when he went over, but tries from Darius Boyd and Akuila Uate sealed the win for the Aussies.
