Poor England suffer another Australia humiliation

England are well beaten by defending champions Australia in their second Women's Rugby League World Cup Group A match in Perth.

Poor England suffer another Australia humiliation

In a devastating loss, England suffered another humiliating defeat against Australia. Chapman, Kelleher, Church, Kelly, Robinson, Aiken, Kernick, Dodd, Weale, Penitani Gray, and Bent scored tries during the match. Kelleher was instrumental, netting nine tries and delivering precise kicks. England's poor body language and tackling were evident as they conceded a penalty just one second into the game.

The loss solidified the stark contrast between England and Australia, whose dominance continued with a 78-0 victory. Despite some injuries, Australia showcased their superior skills, leaving England with a tough task to overcome in their upcoming match against Samoa.
