England power past Australia 25-7

England defeated Australia 25-7 at Twickenham in their opening autumn Test, with tries from Ben Earl, Henry Pollock, Alex Mitchell, and Luke Cowan-Dickie securing a hard-fought victory.

Despite a scrappy first half, England’s physicality and bench strength proved decisive after Harry Potter’s intercept try briefly brought the Wallabies back into contention.

Replacement Pollock’s second-half score restored England’s control, while late tries from Mitchell and Cowan-Dickie sealed the result.



The win marks England’s eighth consecutive Test victory and lifts them to fourth in the world rankings as they prepare to face Fiji, New Zealand, and Argentina in the coming weeks.
