Watch Australia vs Japan live streams as the Wallabies look to follow up their hard-fought 35-32 victory over the Brave Blossoms with a more comprehensive victory on home soil in Townsville, Queensland.
The first game in the post-Joe Schmidt era proved to be a tough one for Australia as they were forced to hang on for a narrow win in Osaka. Surviving a first-half red card for Miles Amatosero and a second-half onslaught from Japan, new head coach Les Kiss would have been nervy on the touchline. He’ll hope for a more convincing display on home soil and has opted for Carter Gordon at fly-half instead of Declan Meredith.
Japan coach Eddie Jones was a mixture of proud and frustrated after last week’s defeat. Disappointed with “fundamental errors” late in the game as they sought to earn a memorable victory, he was still pleased with how far the team has come and how hard they played. He’ll hope they can cut out the mistakes and show the same attacking dynamism that got them tantalisingly close to a first-ever victory over Australia.
