England round off autumn series with convincing win over Australia

England completed a highly satisfying November series with a crushing 37-18 four-try victory over a ragged Australia at Twickenham.

They a record sixth successive win in the 50th meeting of the old sporting rivals.

After an early try for Jonny May it was 13-13 at the break but Elliot Daly, Joe Cokanasiga and Owen Farrell underlined England's second-half dominance as a try in each half for Israel Folau flattered the tired-looking tourists.

The result followed wins for England over South Africa and Japan and a one-point defeat by New Zealand and has got them right back on track after a poor Six Nations and 2-1 series defeat in South Africa in June.

"It was a bit like Japan, we got seduced and thought it was going to come easy," said England coach Eddie Jones.
