    Australia will go mental if they don't at least draw this game they've dominated, England getting gifted the game by the ref

    Moore ahead of the ball carrier, got in the tackler's way and prevented him making a fully effective tackle. Looked the right decision to me.

    Ireland would smash either of these teams.

    No way they were picking themselves up after the second disallowed try

    Typical. Nothing to fear at twickenham apart from the referee in March. England no better than ourselves. Australia should be cruising this but shooting themselves in the foot repeatedly

    haha, this is ridiculous.

    England looking like a team that may have already hit their peak. Australia would be very dangerous with one or two world class forwards.

    If it was a dry day I reckon the Aussies would have won comfortably. Miles the better team. Butchered two tries and England went up the other way and got big breaks.

    I've never seen a scoreline flatter the winning team more than this one does. Absolute robbery.

    Australia their own worst enemy today.

    Too many individual errors to England consistency

    Well that scoreline in no way reflects the match.

    Not playing well and beating  a team like Australia whom always up their performance against England is a sign off a very good team.

    Australia don't up their performance for England. They regularly freeze and butcher chances like today. If they were even remotely calm today they would have won comfortably

    This is the most flattering scoreline I've seen in a long time. Hopefully it will paper over the problems in the English performance until we smash them in the Spring.

    If my granny had balls.......  And yes the Aussies just like Ireland always up their game for England.  Always have done.

    This is the 5th time in a row now England have beaten Australia, they're a seriously well drilled outfit under Jones. Winning matches unspectacularly is always a good sign

    The two matches for example Ireland lost in the 6n this English side would never lose, and that's the difference between the sides in all honesty - even if Ireland have a higher ceiling

    Yes a team fresh off beating the All Blacks and nearly beating them a second time just upped their game and lost to an underperforming England side. Got you
