Australia join the kick-to-kick for a while, until Koroibete fancies a run – and why wouldn’t he?
Brought on with 10 minutes left and little to lose, the Melbourne Mullet sparked Australia’s best attacking waves all night to end a dismal day on a bright note, kicking infield for Koroibete then backing up to scoot 50-metres for a terrific try.
But the try scorer Jeronimo de la Fuente is penalised for getting stuck on the wrong side of the ruck after tackling Koroibete and the Wallabies kick over halfway.
Georgian props are not known for their passivity in defence, but they found their match in Koroibete who smashed through two of them.
Outstanding performances during the July series against England and in the Rugby Championship (TRC) gave Koroibete a sufficient cushion in the voting tally to finish ahead of loose forward Rob Valetini.
Richie Mo’unga thinks he has a try of his own to convert, leaping beneath the posts after a Koroibete spill in the backfield, but Wayne Barnes concludes that Mo’unga’s push of the Wallabies wing had come just before his hands were on the ball.
