Aussie sporting legends, the Jillaroos, showed their dominance on the field with a sensational performance against the PNG Orchids at Suncorp Stadium on Friday night.

Winger Julia Robinson wrote her name in the record books after scoring an impressive six tries in the team's 84-0 victory.

The previous record for most tries in a Test by a Jillaroo was held by Sam Bremner with five at the 2013 World Cup, a feat now matched by right winger Jakiya Whitfeld in this game.

It was clear that Brad Donald's team was firing on all cylinders as they produced a flawless display.

The Jillaroos wasted no time in making their mark, with Robinson breaking through the defense in the ninth minute to set up Tamika Upton for the first try of the game.

The conversion by Tarryn Aiken put them ahead 6-0 early on.

Despite some spirited play by the Orchids, a mistake from their halfback led to a missed opportunity.

The Jillaroos capitalized on this error, with Robinson scoring her second try after some impressive teamwork from Aiken, Upton, and Isabelle Kelly.

The left edge of the Jillaroos continued to shine, with Robinson securing a hat-trick three minutes later.

Whitfeld then joined the party in the 25th minute, taking advantage of the Orchids being a player down after Roswita Kapo was sent to the sin bin.

Overall, it was a commanding performance from the Jillaroos, showcasing their skill and determination on the field.

They truly ran riot against the opposition, leaving a lasting impression on fans and critics alike.
