Scorecard

Israel Folau and Henry Speight scored a double each as Australia went on to complete a 37-14 win over Fiji at AAMI Park in Melbourne on Saturday.

Both Folau and Speight scored a try each in the first 10 minutes while fly-half Bernard Foley kicked a penalty and a conversion to take Wallabies into a 15 point lead.

Folau was sin-binned in the 19th minute but Fiji failed to capitalise on it as they continued the search for their first points. A second penalty from Foley that came in the 28th minutes ensured Australia completed the first half with a 18-0 lead.

Australia continued their onslaught in the second with Folau crossing over for the second time and it was in the 62nd minute, Fiji finally managed to get on board after Vereniki Goneva strolled past the post.

Even though, Fiji winger Timoci Nagusa scored their second try in the 76th minute, touchdowns from Stephen Moore and Speight ensured a 23 point victory for Australia.

Australia will take on Scotland next on 17th June and will follow it with another face off against Italy on 24th June.
