Shannon Walker comes off the bench and explodes with the ball in hand. He slices the defence before throwing a dummy and going 40m to score under the poles as the hooter sounds. Dominant performance from the Aussies.
Portugal have not been accurate enough so far today, plenty of poor passes and bad decisions. They have proven they are able to cause upsets, they just need to gel.
Pama Fou bounces off his defender like a rag-doll. Tremendous strength. He then has a simple run in to extend the lead.
Clark puts in a deadly step and is able to get away from his defender and get over the line for the Aussies third try. Too much strength and class so far. Portugal need to change something quickly.
What a fantastic, patient build-up by the Portuguese. They dig deep and go the length of the field to score in the corner, over a minute after the hooter.
Portugal have gone nearly a minute after the hooter, still looking for a gap to break the defence.
Australia are looking like a team that are in-form. They make some fantastic offloads in the tackle, keeping the ball alive at all times. Jenkins finds himself at the end of some great work and has one defender to beat 10m out from the tryline, and he easily gets over to extend his teams lead.
Portugal put some decent phases together, but a great steal from Malouf puts the Aussies back on the attack.
Australia show some serious strength in the tackle, breaking through defenders with ease. Eventually Jenkins gets the ball out wide and he makes easy work of the attempted tackle before scoring under the poles.
Next up we have Australia taking on Portugal. They have met on 20 occasions with the Aussies finishing victorious 17 times and the Portuguese winning 3 times. Portugal will need to put in a big effort .
