The Kangaroos will enter the Pacific Nations Championships final heavy favourites after a rousing 36-18 win over New Zealand, which featured an unlikely double from prop Lindsay Collins. The Australians scored six tries at AAMI Park in a high-quality taster for the tournament final in Hamilton next Saturday which will again feature the trans-Tasman rivals.
“Our second half was amazing - our completion rate was great and we controlled field position and we’ve got some quality players in our footy team who can take advantage of that. “Things are working well for us but we put the effort in.” Coming off the bench Collins scored with his first touch of the ball in the 21st minute and secured his first-ever career double soon after thanks to a quick play-the-ball by Harry Grant, who fired a pass to the Sydney Roosters prop.
