Entering Oz & NZ without returnticket ??

Hi there,
Does anyone know if it is possible to enter Oz and NZ
without an onward ticket. We are now in Singapore, we'll
fly into Cairns but we want to buy onward tickets from
Sydney. (Sydney -> Auckland -> USA -> Europe)
Do the customs particularly in Oz check if you have an
onward ticket? If it is a problem, we'll have to buy an
onward ticket here in Singapore.
please help, thanks.

1. Onward ticket? Added by: Jonny

   Hello you two and anyone else reading. I am going to Oz on
   June the 4th and only have a single ticket. The problem is
   that you do not need an onward ticket if you have a working
   visa. When you apply for just a tourist visa you have to
   sign an undertaking that you have an onward or return
   ticket. Did you do this? I do know that you probably need
   an onward ticket when going to NZ as I have also enquired
   about it. As that is where I am hoping to go onto as well.
   Happy travelling!

   As far as I know you do need a return ticket. What I did is
   came through via NZ as it was cheaper than a return airfare
   from OZ and did not use the return.....
   Don't know if this helps you at all
