81'+137-18 End of second half
81'37-18 Try - Israel Folau , Australia

80'Full-time analysis from Tom Hamilton at Twickenham:

A sizeable win for England over Australia draws a line under a November series where they took several steps forward. Mark Wilson, Kyle Sinckler and Joe Cokanasiga were fantastic for England and Eddie Jones will have learned a huge amount about the squad's depth. Australia were woeful, lacked any gameplan and were splintered in every aspect of the game. England won this match comfortably, and it should have been more, but they will count themselves lucky they were not on the wrong end of a certain penalty try at the end of the first half.
80'The conversion is missed. Kind of fitting, really, that Australia do something good, if fruitless, and then make a mistake straight after. It was that sort of game. Van Halen's "Jump" plays on the PA as the players shake hands and look a little relieved that the November Tests are all over.
80'The Wallabies do at least keep going to the end, with Haylett-Petty bursting towards the line. It's a good tackle that takes him down, but a grubber to the corner allows Folau to tap down for his second try of the game. That denies England a record-equalling 24-point victory over the Wallabies, which they set against them last time out at Twickenham, winning 30-6.
77'Australia can't catch a break in this second half. A forward pass denies Koroibete an easy try on the right wing. The Wallabies have a lot of work to do before next year's World Cup -- but then they knew that before a ball was kicked here today.
77'37-13 Conversion - Owen Farrell , England
77'Player substituted - Courtney Lawes , England
77'Substitute on - Charlie Ewels , England
76'Wigglesworth has England on the front foot again, pushing forward well down the right. A couple of phases later, Wigglesworth is back pulling the strings and sets up Owen Farrell. TRY ENGLAND! They've gone through the gears in this second half, and what was a tied game at the break is now a landslide.
76'35-13 Try - Owen Farrell , England
75'Substitute on - Nathan Hughes , England

75'Substitute on - George Ford , England
75'Player substituted - Ben Te'o , England
74'England are making good ground in the Australia 22, a rolling maul getting the crowd roaring once again. They're five metres from the Aussie line. But they've knocked on, and Rodda leaps on the loose ball. England caught offside, and the opportunity dies.
72'Substitute on - Dylan Hartley , England
72'Player substituted - Jamie George , England
71'
71'Folau escapes a charged down kick in his own 22, and challenges for the bobbling ball well against Cokanasiga. There is little flow to the game right now, with substitutions being made regularly - including an appearance by England co-captain Dylan Hartley, who has assumed the role of "finisher" during this month's Tests.
69'Huge roar from the Twickenham crowd as Manu Tuilagi returns to international action. He's been working as a barista and a pool hustler in his time out of action with England.
69'Brilliant try from Jonny May! A length of the field effort, kick and chasing after Australia thought they were almost through at the other end! That's going to the TMO as there's perhaps three things that need looked at. Was there an obstruction early in the breakaway? Was there an offside? Was the ball in touch? And was the grounding ok? The ball was in touch, and that will rule the try out.

66'They get to 13 phases before Itoje comes flying through, illegally. Advantage Australia, so the kick goes high to the corner. It's knocked on by Australia, so it goes back for the penalty. Then there's an intruder on the field - turns out to be the world's worst streaker, who fails to get his clothes off, much to the hilarity of the Twickenham crowd. It's been that kind of day.
65'Haylett-Petty looking better in attack than he has in defence today, making great ground in the England half to give Australia some encouragement. They're inside the England 22.
65'Substitute on - Harry Williams , England
65'Player substituted - Kyle Sinckler , England
64'30-13 Penalty goal - Owen Farrell , England
63'England have an advantage, so Farrell kicks high for the corner, for Jonny May to challenge Haylett-Petty. May gets a hand in to make it difficult for the Aussie wing, and sure enough the ball hits the turf. But it was a knock on, and Farrell will now take the three points.
61'Right at the end of that run, Haylett-Petty got demolished, again, but Michael Hooper made an unbelievable tackle to stop Cokanasiga reaching over the line. Henry Slade was open for the pass as well, but you can't fault Cokanasiga for going for it, nor the tackle from Hooper, which was perfection.
60'England remain on the front foot, until a turnover falls Australia's way and Toomua launches an up and under to halfway. But Cokanasiga takes it and takes it and takes it - all the way to one metre from the Aussie line! Wow, what a turn that was. England push for the line on the recycle, but they are held up over the line. Cokanasiga lost some confidence right at the end of his run, if he'd just charged for the line he would have had his third international try.
57'Player substituted - Sekope Kepu , Australia
57'Substitute on - Allan Alaalatoa , Australia
57'Player substituted - Ben Youngs , England
57'Substitute on - Richard Wigglesworth , England
57'Substitute on - Ned Hanigan , Australia
57'Player substituted - Pete Samu , Australia
57'27-13 Conversion - Owen Farrell , England
56'Itoje supplied the pass, but Haylett-Petty won't enjoy the replays of his tackle on Cokanasiga, as he is left lying on the turf like Bambi on ice, while the England wing bursts through the remaining defenders.
56'25-13 Try - Joe Cokanasiga , England
55'Mark Wilson makes a great burst forward from the scrum, taking it into the Australia 22. That gets the crowd going. It all gets bogged down again though, with some loose passes going to ground, but a good pick-up from Underhill keeps England on the front foot. And now Cokanasiga is in! Try for England! His second international try.
54'Genuinely, nothing is happening. A collapsed scrum here, a tactical talk there, the minutes passing by like strollers in the park. Ah, here we go...
50'There's not much to tell you about right now. It's summed up by Farrell slicing an over-the-top kick straight out of play from the middle of the park. There have been some flashes of great play in this game, but they've been rare.
49'Player substituted - Tolu Latu , Australia
49'Substitute on - Tatafu Polota-Nau , Australia
48'Scratchy bit of play all round, capped off by Kepu coming in from the side (really, from the wrong side entirely) and believing he's robbed England and tapping down under the posts, to jeers from everybody. Sometimes you wonder if players are taking this game seriously...
45'
45'20-13 Conversion - Owen Farrell , England
44'England treading water 10 metres inside the Australia half - until the ball finds Elliot Daly! Wow, a superb angle from the England fullback and he runs 35 metres virtually untouched for the try! Good offload from Farrell, but just a great line taken from Daly to skip around the defensive line and curl around the remaining defenders. Great try, every bit the burst out of nothing that Folau's was in the first half.
44'18-13 Try - Elliot Daly , England
43'England force Australia into an infringement at the scrum, and Farrell can boot for touch. It's a short, rehearsed move, with George immediately getting it back from Ben Moon, but he can't find any space.
42'
41'And we are back up and running for the second half - and it takes only 30 seconds for some tempers to fray. Kyle Sinckler gets a little too wound up at the turn over. Referee Peyper tells England captain Owen Farrell "You need to calm 3 down". "It's a man's game," protests Sinckler. "It's also a gentleman's game," says Peyper. About the only thing the referee has got right so far today.
41'Substitute on - Sefa Naivalu , Australia
41'Player substituted - Jack Maddocks , Australia
41'+213-13 End of first half
41'+213-13 Penalty goal - Matt To'omua , Australia
40'More analysis from Tom Hamilton at Twickenham:

A scrappy first half at Twickenham. Australia are doing their best to look disjointed and without cohesion, but when they click -- rare as it was -- they are lethal. England will be furious with themselves that it's all square at the break, having dominated the breakdown. But it will be the Wallabies wondering quite how they're not ahead due to some truly bizarre officiating from Jaco Peyper who ignored a clear shoulder charge from Owen Farrell to prevent Australia scoring a try on the stroke of half time.
40'
40'Into added time before the scrum is even contested. Australia will have a chance to attack from midway inside England's half. Kerevi with some good direct running, then a pass inside leaves Rodda clear for the line! Only for Farrell to appear out of nowhere and take down the rampaging lock. Was that another shoulder tackle? This is the South Africa controversy, the wrap-around tackle of Farrell, all over again. Michael Cheika is absolutely furious in the coaching box. David Pocock is laughing ironically. Australia have a penalty for a separate offence, but they should probably have a penalty try. Captain Hooper says "I thought he dropped the shoulder there" to which Peyper replies "I thought your player also dropped his shoulder". So that's why that wasn't given. Controversy reigns at Twickenham, plus an element of confusion. How are Australia level?!
40'13-13 Start of second half
39'England looking to cause some excitement before halftime. Sinckler burrows forward inside the Australia half. But at the next breakdown, Dempsey turns England over. Eventually a clearance kick is sliced so badly by Daly that it hits Farrell in front of him and then clobbers referee Peyper. Offside against England, scrum Australia, maybe a little stinger for Peyper as well.
37'Easy conversion. Game on? Game on!
37'13-10 Conversion - Matt To'omua , Australia
36'Well, well, well - it only takes a moment for a player as talented as Israel Folau to do something special, and that's exactly what has hapepened here. Folau takes the pass just outside the 22, gets past Farrell's tap tackle, steps past Youngs' arm tackle and leaves Daly for dead to cross under the posts. That was magnificent. Sheer individual brilliance from Folau.
36'13-8 Try - Israel Folau , Australia
35'
34'Stroked over, England lead by 10 points. That's the minimum they should be leading this by.
34'13-3 Penalty goal - Owen Farrell , England
33'Another penalty at the breakdown for Australia. That's five, but it feels like 10. This time it's a tip tackle of sorts by Rodda, 10 metres inside his own half. The crowd want a card, but there was no real danger. A penalty will suffice, and Farrell lines up another three points.
31'Conservative work at the lineout, hitting the front and setting England up for an attack. Daly kicks it through for Cokanasiga to chase, but it's well covered by Foley as the ball goes dead.
30'England win another penalty at the breakdown, Maro Itoje doing brilliant work to cover up the tackled Australian, and instead of going for the points from the middle of the field, England go for touch. The right decision, given Daly's last effort!
29'
28'Well, controversy here. Australia are lining up the kick. The big screen at Twickenham shows the forward pass. The crowd go wild. The referee changes his decision! Doesn't even refer to the TMO, simply overrules and takes everyone back for the scrum. There might be some discussion about that in the days to come. The right decision, ultimately, but virtually no step in the process felt right there!
27'Haylett-Petty sends Kerevi away down the left - that looked forward. The crowd holler. Australia continue and then a pass inside sets up Haylett-Petty for the touch down. Oddly, they're not even going to look at that forward pass. That's a try.
24'Ha, well. Not one for the highlight reel. Daly gets underneath his kick, trying too hard to get the distance, and it falls fully 15 metres short of the posts. And now Australia get on the front foot, until Genia's poor pass gives England back the ball in the England 22. A boot into touch and England will reset after being split apart for a moment.
24'England destroy another Australia scrum, and another penalty for England. This one is five metres inside their own half, but Elliot Daly says "posts". Go on, then...
23'
22'Australia have half a chance in England territory, but Toomua's miss pass is too high for Bernard Foley. Wild stuff.
22'Good coverage from Elliot Daly at fullback, sliding on brilliantly to a high kick from deep by Australia. He's taken into touch, but an encouraging moment for Daly, who got caught out badly under the high ball five minutes ago.
20'Bad drop by Henry Slade as England try to work it wide towards the left flank. Twickenham is quieter than usual and this is turning into a very different kind of test for England than they might have expected - one which is about focus and application, rather than excellence.
19'Australia defend well and get a good break up teh left from Jack Maddocks - but England turn them over once, and then again on the clearance into Australia territory. Not to put to fine a point on this, but Japan gave England a tougher match last weekend. Really poor stuff from the Wallabies.
16'Australia haven't spent much time inside the England half, but just as they are beginning to build some pressure, they are turned over and England can clear their lines. Then, at the next breakdown, England again turn them over and Australia are caught offside, to boot. Crikey - how much of this wobbling from the Wallabies is down to the absence of David Pocock?
15'10-3 Penalty goal - Owen Farrell , England
14'Good strike, over the posts, and England have a seven-point lead again.
13'And he's tugged it off the post! Not the clean strike you have come to expect from the England co-captain. And yet England are going to have another penalty almost immediately, Australia going in at the side, Sekope Kepu the offender on this occasion. This one is dead centre of the pitch, so Farrell will get a chance to ease back into the flow of kicking a minute after a duff.
11'Israel Folau gets trapped inside his own 22, and eventually he's pinged for not releasing. It will be a penalty for England and a shot at goal for Owen Farrell, 10 metres in from the left touchline.
10'Great run from Sinckler, who picked a great angle and charged through the Wallabies defence untouched. He's eventually brought down around the 22, but England needlessly throw the ball away. That early try and some missteps from the Wallabies defensively seems to have switched everyone off a bit mentally.
9'England win the lineout and begin to build through the phases inside the 22, but they are turned over at the breakdown and Haylett-Petty gains some ground for Australia, before Toomua tries to gain more with a boot over the top. England will have to build from deep, instead.
8'One step forward, two steps back though for Australia. Another loose pass towards Toomua in his own in-goal area leaves him scurrying to punt for touch. Really poor stuff when on the back foot so far from the Wallabies.
7'Nice strike from Toomua, and Australia are on the board. Perhaps the most striking thing there though was how quiet Twickenham was - rare that the plea to "respect the kicker" is observed quite so obediently!
7'7-3 Penalty goal - Matt To'omua , Australia
6'Australia get a little lift, with Maro Itoje penalised inside his own half. Matt Toomua will have a 40-metre shot at goal, towards the right flank.
5'
4'Owen Farrell with the difficult conversion from the right flank - and he's nailed it, straight over the middle of the uprights. He made that look easy.
4'7-0 Conversion - Owen Farrell , England
3'5-0 Try - Jonny May , England
2'Huge shove from the England pack, quick flick to Youngs, to May - TRY ENGLAND! Massive start for England, but that could not have been a worse two minutes for Australia.
1'Immediately Australia make a mess of things. Genia fumbles at the base of the ruck, Ben Youngs charges down Haylett-Petty's clearance kick, and the Wallabies have to scramble to only give away a scrum five to England. Nightmare start for the tourists.
1'We are go!
