Bradford Bulls 34 – Greece 34
Plenty of tries in this one, with nothing able to separate them in the end.
Greece fought back from 22-12 down at halftime to get it back to level scores, with Souths’ Lachlan Ilias hitting the post on a last minute penalty goal which would have given them the win.
Wales 22 – Lebanon 38
Lebanon kicked on from leading 24-6 at halftime in this game, to take the win here.
Jacob Kiraz looked the goods at fullback, while Doueihi was strong as always in the halves. Add in Mitch Moses and the Cedars will be exciting this Cup.
You can catch Wales in action on Thursday morning at 5:30am AEDT against the Cook Islands.
