The Australian women's water polo team, the Aussie Stingers, have made it two wins from as many games in their five match test series against Great Britain, defeating the 'old enemy' 14-4 in game two at the AIS in Canberra on Thursday night.

The girls bounced back from a slightly rusty opening on Tuesday, to produce a much improved extra-man display in what was an encouraging sign for the future.

The Stingers got off to a quick start jumping out to a 4-1 lead in the opening term with two-time Olympian Melissa Rippon netting an early double, before Bronwen Knox and youngster Hannah Buckling helped consolidate that advantage with two of their own.

Great Britain were able to hold Australia to a 2-0 scoreline in the third quarter before the Stingers accelerated in the last period to seal the 10 goal win.

Young gun Buckling ended up with three for the match, as did Melissa Rippon, while captain Kate Gynther, Brownwen Knox, Gemma Beadsworth and Zoe Arancini all piped in with two.

Australia's next game against Great Britain is on Saturday at 6.30pm
