And there ends the Lancaster reign. Ultimately a good man who was too rigid and narrow minded in selection and bottled it at the key time. Another disasterous world cup.

In a big pressure, must win game that is a hammering.

Gordon Brittas looking like he knows he won't see out his contract.

Nine turnovers.

The writing was on the wall last week. Hell, it was on the wall last season.

They were miles better than us. We fucked it last week, but this week no complaints. They are by far the better team.

They have torn us a new one up front. Australia.

I wonder what Steffon Armitage thinks?

George Ford not on until half time is a pretty massive fucking complaint

I don't think he would have changed the result to be honest.

Oh dear, bang goes all the media and marketing hype! ITV will not be happy. We looked like brainless pub players, the Australians had so much more physicality and sharpness of mind. We mirror the coach and the captain - slow and not very bright. Totally outclassed in every department.

First turnover was in the 77th minute according to the radio.

In the first half, during the spells with the ball we had, he'd have made a massive difference in unlocking their defence in their 22. By the time he came on there was just too much to do.

We'd definitely have beaten Wales last week if he'd started

They know that interest in the tournament that they are televising will plummet from now on. I will watch the quarters and so on because I'm a big rugby fan but the masses of people with a casual interest won't tune in again after today.
