Tries: McLean (2), Robertson (2), Wright, Osborne; Conversions: McLean (5); Penalty Goal: McLean (missed 1 pen).
Scoring sequence (Japan's score shown first): 1min-try Australia, McLean; conv. McLean-0-6, 3min-try Australia, Robertson; conv. McLean-0-12, 9min-pen Japan, Ueyama-3-12, 18min-try Japan, Aruga; conv. Ueyama (missed)-7-12, 34min-try Australia, Wright; conv. McLean-7-18, Half-time, 42min-try Australia, Robertson; conv. McLean-7-24, 47min-pen Australia, McLean-7-24, 57min-try Australia, McLean; conv. McLean (missed)-7-31, 59min-try Australia, Osborne; conv. McLean-7-37.
Although every player of Japan was fired up for the first test match in the tour, the rain seemed to have dimmed their enthusiasm a little. Very early in the match, Japan conceded two goals due to soft tackling by the backs just like the previous game against the Sydney team, but managed to play at their own pace for 15 minutes or so. At one stage, the score was 7-12. Just one goal could make Japan win. However, Australia scored a try and a goal in the 35th minute to widen the gap. As in the first half, Japan conceded one goal and one penalty very early in the second half. This gave Australia a comfortable margin of victory. It was a seesaw game afterwards, but Australia steadily added to their score and won 7-37. If Japan had had more sense of tension in the beginning of each half, it could have been a close match.
