2019 REPRESENTATIVE FIXTURES

Clean sweep for green and gold in Wollongong

It was a clean sweep for Australia in the triple-header at WIN Stadium, Wollongong on Friday night with the Junior Kangaroos, Jillaroos and Kangaroos all triumphing.

Perhaps the best Junior Kangaroos side ever fielded kicked off the night with a 12-try drubbing of France, before the Jillaroos bounced back from their shock defeat to the Kiwi Ferns in the 2019 World Nines final with a clinical 28-8 victory.

Not even the return of Benji Marshall as captain for a record 20th time would be enough for the Kiwis to topple the high-flying Kangaroos either, with Mal Meninga's side making the most of their opportunities to cruise to a 26-4 win.

Tonga stun Great Britain with defensive resilience

  • Tonga Invitational 14 def. Great Britain Lions 6 (Highlights)

A Tonga Invitational side put an season of off-field dramas behind it with a stunning 14-6 win victory over the Great Britain Lions to kick-start their tour.

Playing at Waikato Stadium — the same venue as their landmark victory over New Zealand two years prior — Tonga chanced their arm in the first half and scored the opening two tries to lead 14-0, before showing tremendous resilience in defence to hold out the Lions for the majority of the match before a late John Bateman try.

Upsets galore in Eden Park triple-header

Tonga became the first team not named New Zealand, England or Great Britain to defeat Australia in over 40 years with a thrilling 16-12 upset over the Kangaroos. Trailing 12-6 at half-time, Tonga rode the support of the Eden Park crowd to announce their status as legitimate tier one competitors with a gutsy win.

That wasn't the only upset on the day with Fiji also turning on their attacking class to easily account for Samoa, while Michael Maguire's Kiwis held their nerve late against Great Britain to emerge with their first victory of the end-of-season Tests.

New Zealand close down series with classy win

New Zealand closed out their two-Test series against an underwhelming Great Britain side with a classy 23-8 win over the Lions at Christchurch. Shaun Johnson's return proved key for the Kiwis with a try and a hand in several others, before Jamayne Isaako added a late field goal to seal the win for Coach Michael Maguire.

Earlier in the day, Fiji showed their class to see off a resilient Papua New Guinea outfit 22-20. The Kumuls never led but stayed within six points all game to keep the scoreline tight, but Fiji simply had too much in the end to secure another win.

Kumuls down Lions in stunning end to dismal Tour

Papua New Guinea inflicted more misery on Great Britain as they closed out their tour without a win following a 28-10 loss to the Kumuls in Port Moresby.

It was a day to remember for the home side, with the women's side also breaking through for an incredible last-second win over their more fancied opponents.
