Australia's Henry Paterson evades the Kenyan defence to score a try.
Corey Toole, Henry Paterson and Dietrich Roache scored the tries against Samoa as Australia became the fifth nation to win the world series since its inception in 1999.South Africa entered the tournament atop the series standings but only two points clear of Australia.When South Africa was twice beaten in the group stage — by the United States and New Zealand — it missed out on the quarterfinals of the elite cup division and Australia's chances of claiming the world title increased.
"An absolute bunch of misfits who have worked so hard for each other," commentator Rikki Swannell said."So connected, some plucked from club rugby throughout Australia and now champions on the world stage.""I'm so happy, I don't think it's sunk in. A huge accomplishment for so much hard work," Malouf said."We hope we made you proud and we love competing for you guys."Moses Leo scored the match winner for New Zealand with a minute remaining.
Tone Ng Shiu gave New Zealand a 21-14 lead early in the second half before Fiji levelled the scores again through Filipe Sauturaga."We knew it was going to be a tough match, especially because everywhere we go it seems to be a home crowd for Fiji," New Zealand captain Sione Molia said.
