Watch Australia vs Cook Islands for FREE: Live streams

Australia will face Cook Islands in a Rugby League World Cup 2026 match at Queensland Country Bank Stadium in Townsville. The Kangaroos are set to advance to the semi-finals after a recent victory over New Zealand. Cook Islands, on the other hand, will exit after this match following their two previous losses. While Australia remains favored to win the tournament for a fourth time, they have yet to fully assert themselves at the event.

Coach Kevin Walters has made eight changes to the team, with debutant Sam Walker scoring 16 points. Cook Islands will have former Australian star Valentine Holmes return to face his country, who holds the record for most tries in a single match at the tournament. To watch the match for free, viewers in Australia can tune in to Channel 7 or 7plus, while those outside Australia can use a VPN, such as NordVPN, to unlock their usual stream.
