Wearing an Australian team cap, the Prime Minister jogged onto the filed to deliver the drinks, and some players even got high fives.

However, this isn’t the first time Morrison has carried drinks on to a field of play. Earlier this month, Morrison attended a friendly rugby match between Australia and Fiji, and handed players their uniforms and water bottles on the field.
