For the record: This was Game 3 of the 1968 Rugby League World Cup played in Australia (Sydney Cricket Ground and Lang Park) and New Zealand (Carlaw Park, Auckland). The attendance at Lang Park was 23,608. Australia would win the 1968 World Cup Final in front of 54,290 at the SCG defeating France 20-2. It was the last time to date that France has appeared in the World Cup Final. They will host the 2025 World Cup tournament. New Zealand equalled the inaugural World Cup in 1954 with their worst World Cup on record, losing all 3 games to France (10-15 @ Carlaw), Australia (12-31 here) and to Great Britain (14-38 @ SCG).
