Australia W - Live on TV Rugby League
Jillaroos will face Kiwi Ferns in the Rugby League World Cup final at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane on Sunday, November 15. The defending champions enter as strong favourites, having won the last three World Cups, including a dominant 54–4 victory over New Zealand in the previous final. However, the Kiwi Ferns have a proud history of their own, winning three consecutive world titles between 2000 and 2008.
Australia secured their place in the final with a 30–14 semi-final victory over Fiji, although they were given an unexpected scare after falling 8–0 behind. Abbi Church was the standout performer with four tries, while Tamika Upton and Jaime Chapman also crossed the line. Chapman left the field with a possible hamstring concern but indicated the substitution was precautionary. New Zealand advanced with a convincing 32–0 win over Samoa, inspired by Stacey Waakas hat-trick and an impressive performance from captain Raecene McGregor.
The Jillaroos attacking depth and international experience make them favourites, but New Zealands physical forward pack and dangerous backline could provide a serious challenge.
The final kicks off at 3:10pm AEST and will be broadcast live and free across Australia on Seven and 7plus Sport.

The Jillaroos begin their campaign against Samoa on October 16 at CommBank Stadium in Sydney, before facing England in Perth on October 24 and Wales in Sydney on November 1. The clash with England could prove particularly important in determining the final Group A standings, while the opening match against Samoa will test Australia’s ability to handle a physical and passionate opponent. With the support of the home crowd and a squad packed with NRLW stars, Australia will be among the teams to watch as they pursue another world title, although New Zealand and England are expected to provide serious competition.
