Three time World Cup champions, Australia, were just too good and it was all over as far as a contest is concerned by half time.

The Aussies led seven-one going into the break, making sure that they would top the standings in Pool A and secure a quarter-final berth.

The Proteas were far more competitive in the last two quarters and conceded just two more goals, while scoring a second themselves near the end of the match.

The result means the Proteas finish bottom of Pool and will now play-off for the ninth to 16th places.
