Church scores four tries as Australia beat Fiji Bulikula 30-14 Jillaroos will face New Zealand in the final next weekend The Jillaroos survived an almighty scare from Fiji in the World Cup semi-final, securing a place in the tournament decider against New Zealand at Lang Park next week despite a stunning resistance from the brilliant Bulikula. Driven by the exquisite, unpredictable playmaker Luisa Yaranamua – 23 and yet to play an NRLW match – and supported by powerful, committed teammates, Fiji led for much of the first half and were level with the Jillaroos at half-time.
