MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Australia will practise their drop goal plays this week ahead of the second Bledisloe Cup test against New Zealand, having eschewed the chance of a match-winning kick in Wellington, scrumhalf Nic White said on Tuesday.

With the score locked 16-16 late in Sunday's opener, neither side attempted a kick for victory though both had chances deep in attack.
