Wallabies meet old foes England with victory more important than ever (The Guardian)

There may well be a golden decade coming for the Australian game's administrators, but it won't matter if the Wallabies aren't winning.

Win and the path is a brick road of Wallaby gold, a ramp to a World Cup title shot. Fall to the old foe again and a thousand miles of bad road lies ahead, all littered with dead rabbits. With a 40% win rate from his 20 Tests, Rennie badly needs to hold this inaugural Mobbs-Ella Trophy. Will he storm the enemy’s machine gun nest as Mobbs did at Ypres in 1917 and pass into everlasting glory? Hooper is a lionheart at the ruck and a dervish in open play. England will pump the sidelines and expose Australia’s lineout, leaving Porecki, a Waratah, throwing to two Brumbies in Swain and Neville. Bell is a target at the set piece, having given away 18 penalties in Super Rugby this year, mostly for scrum collapses. Ill-discipline will kill any Wallaby momentum and court death by a thousand kicks from Owen Farrell who nailed 23 from 26 attempts in 2016 to lead the whitewash, despite Australia scoring more tries in two of three Tests.

Live: Wallabies out to end Eddie's eight match winning streak against 'confident' England.

We’re not looking for anything less than a win, but we’re expecting a very tough, tough game. It all started with a 3-0 series whitewash Down Under in 2016. “It’s an area that we feel if we can overshadow them, then it gives us an opportunity to get our game going and put a bit of heat on at the right end of the field. “They’ll want to scrum and maybe scrum for penalties to get territory and put us in the corner or kick for the posts. “We know games of these magnitude and intensity it’s going to go back and forth quite a bit and we have to stay in the fight, throw punches, absorb then get on the front foot and apply pressure. “We just need to get a couple of wins under the belt, mini wins in the game,” he told reporters on Friday in Perth.

Live coverage of the 1st Test between Australia and England. The hosts lost Quade Cooper to injury during the warm-up before having Darcy Swain sent off.

A chance for Lolesio to get the hosts on the board... 23rd minute: Excellent work from the Australia pack and England collapse the scrum. 13th minute: Farrell with the up and under, brilliant hands from George. England work possession back across the field. Banks comes careering over the top of Vunipola looking to retrieve the high ball and the fullback lands heavily on his arm. The hosts have a penalty coming for offside but sense the first try of the series. The tourists see out the danger but here's Lolesio with a chance to level matters. Farrell hooks the conversion across the posts and the tourists have to settle for five. Once Hill is back from his stint in the bin, Jones will look for his men to turn the screw. Australia secure the lineout and Fainga'a is alert to the possibilities to crash over. 56th minute: Heroic work from Australia as England kick for the corner and Vunipola looks to blast a way through. 71st minute: Jack Nowell wins the ball from the restart and England surge forward in desperation. 74th minute: Now it's the Wallabies' turn to throw in some scrappy nonsense as they make a mess of their lineout.

The night of injury carnage for the Wallabies started even before kick-off. Quade Cooper was a last-minute withdrawal after straining his left calf in the warm-up, but it was the injury to Banks that left viewers squeamish.

Wallabies lock Darcy Swain red-carded for apparent headbutt (Rugby.com.au)

Wallabies lock Darcy Swain has been sensationally red-card for an apparent headbutt during the first Test against England.

It capped off a remarkable half for the Wallabies, who had lost Quade Cooper in the warm-up to a calf injury. This sent the Brumby into a state of rage, squaring up to the Sale enforcer before leading with his head as play continued. As the two wrestled, Hill grabbed the hair of Swain as he looked to prevent the turnover.
