The Gallagher Kangaroos dominated the match against Toa Samoa from the very beginning, with a blistering four-try burst in the opening 15 minutes.
Led by player of the match Payne Haas and powerful Tino Fa'asuamaleaui, the Kangaroos quickly established their dominance.
In the fifth minute, Haas received a short ball from Isaah Yeo and muscled his way through three defenders to score, giving the Kangaroos a 6-0 lead.
Captain James Tedesco followed suit four minutes later, leaving Izack Tago in his dust as he stormed down the left edge.
Fa'asuamaleaui then powered over the tryline in the 13th minute, extending the Kangaroos' lead to 16-0.
Australia continued their onslaught, with Cameron Murray scoring their next try after some impressive teamwork by Haas, Ben Hunt, and Cameron Munster.
However, Samoa managed to work their way into the contest and scored through Murray Taulagi, reducing the Kangaroos' lead to 22-6.
Samoa had a chance to score a second try after a mistake by Dylan Edwards near the Kangaroos' tryline.
Unfortunately, a poor pass by Daejarn Asi squandered the opportunity for Samoa.
