Last-Gasp Try Saves Australia Against Fiji
- In a tense finale, Wallabies captain Harry Wilson scored in the 79th minute to secure a 21-18 victory over Fiji at McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle.
- Given it was their lone warm-up match, coach Joe Schmidt highlighted the need for 'quiet resolve' after a narrow win with injury concerns, including Lolesio's uncertain availability, before facing the Lions.
- Porecki’s driving-maul try and McReight’s score resulted in a lead, but Lolesio was stretchered off with injury, impacting team stability.
- In effect, Australia’s narrow win ended their home drought since July 2020 and prevented pre-Lions embarrassment at Newcastle.
- Thirteen days before the Lions opener, Schmidt emphasizes 'quiet resolve' amid injury concerns and limited preparation time for the Australian team.
