WALLAROOS BEAT IRELAND TO MAKE FIFTH PLACE PLAYOFF

The Wallaroos have qualified for the fifth place playoff at the World Cup thanks to a 12-point win over Ireland.
The Hunter’s Sarah Riordan helped Australia make it 12-all midway through the first half.
“Riordan goes over. What we said they might do, they did do and Sarah Riordan touches down underneath the posts.”
The Wallaroos went on with the job in the second, to win 36 points to 24.
They’ll now play the winner of the clash between Canada and Wales.
