Australia vs Georgia
World Cup
11th October
Australia completed their Rugby World Cup Pool D program with an unimpressive 27-8??victory over Georgia on Friday, grinding the triumph in rain-sodden conditions in Shizuoka.
Nic White notched the sole try beyond a Georgia defensive campaign for the Wallabies, with out-half Matt Toomua adding the only points of the period by means of a penalty.
Marika Koroibete saw a stunning attempt over the hour to provide Australia breathing space, as Alexander Todua sprinted up the wing after having a Lasha Khmaladze break, but Georgia responded to the final 10 minutes.
Australia back-row Jack Dempsey rubber-stamped the victory with five minutes remaining when he scored off the back of a drive when he dived over in the final minute and Will Genia additional gloss.
Australia will face England at the October 19 – together with England having come off the back of a 14-day remainder on Saturday with France because of the unprecedented blackout of their Pool B clash.
