A win for Australia in tonight's game at the LNER Stadium in York would guarantee their progress into the semi-finals and set up a mouth-watering game against the Kiwi´s on Wednesday to see who would top the group.
Australia are ranked World number one in the women´s game while the French are fifth, the bookies giving France a sixty-eight point start on the handicap coupon as they predicted a massacre, despite the Aussies giving three debuts.
The paying public, and those watching on TV, were hoping that the French would be able to give the Jillaroos a game, but expectations were low.
