3 aussies and 3 kiwis

Three Maoris and three Australians are travelling by train to a Rugby match at the World Cup in England.
At the station, the three Maories each buy a ticket and watch as the three Aussies buy just one ticket
between them.
"How are the three of you going to travel on only one ticket?" asks one of the Maori's.
"Watch and learn mate," answers one of the Aussies.

They all board the train. The Maori's take their respective seats but all three Aussies cram into a toilet and close the door behind them.
Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor comes around collecting tickets. He knocks on the toilet door and says, "Ticket please."
The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.

The Maori's see this and agree it was quite a clever idea. So after the game, they decide to copy the Aussies on the return trip and save some money (being clever with money, and all that).
When they get to the station, they buy a single ticket for the return trip.
To their astonishment, the Aussies don't buy a ticket at all!!
"How are you going to travel without a ticket?" says one perplexed Maori.
"Watch and learn mate," answers an Aussie.

When they board the train the three Maori's cram into a toilet and soon after the three Aussies cram into another nearby.
The train departs.
Shortly afterwards, one of the Aussies leaves their toilet and walks over to the toilet where the Maori's are hiding.
He knocks on the door and says, "Ticket please."
