No need to be on same ticket.
Wow, incorrect in capitals. Actually, my info was correct. OZ refused to interline bags when I had a connecting flight on BA on a separate ticket.
I guess someone can be lucky but the airline is under no obligation whatsoever to interline if on separate tickets. Yes, it will most probably still work for the OP but he might not be so lucky. YMMV
In my experience most carriers were happy to interline on separate tickets in the past but many are enforcing the rules now or don't want to take any risk.
