Reece Walsh fires clunky Australia to Rugby League World Cup win against Cook Islands

The Guardian

The Kangaroos top Pool A with 66-6 victory in Townsville Tom Trbojevic scores second hat-trick in as many games Reece Walsh showed if there was anything James Tedesco could do, he can do better with a starring role for the Kangaroos in a partly clunky but otherwise entertaining victory over the Cook Islands in Townsville. Coach Kevin Walters faces a choice between the two brilliant No 1s for the much-anticipated semi-final against either Samoa or Tonga next week, but this only sometimes convincing display showed there is still work to do in camp Kangaroo.
