Photo: ReutersReplacement fullback Dan Biggar kicked a late penalty as Wales claimed a first success in 14 games over nemesis Australia with an error-strewn 9-6 victory at Millennium Stadium. Saturday's win will be a boost to their confidence ahead of next year’s Rugby World Cup in Japan. Both teams struggled at set-pieces in the first half, Wales with their line-outs and Australia at the scrum, and they went into the break level at 3-3. Wales had the last say, though, as they put pressure on Australia just outside the visitors’ 22, leading to Hanigan’s indiscretion and Biggar’s winning penalty three minutes from the end.
