Rugby league: Kiwis hope for home advantage

From Morning Report, 8:50 am on 12 October 2018

The New Zealand men's rugby league team hopes the home ground advantage will help them break a five-match losing against in Auckland on Saturday. Rebuilding after last year's disastrous World Cup campaign, the Kiwis host world champions Australia for the first time on New Zealand soil in four years. The game is also one of three trans-Tasman battles on the day - with the New Zealand women's and junior men's teams also squaring off against their Australian counterparts.
