A ratio of 5 to 1 in tackles by us over the Aussies shows us what they put us through. A false scoreline but not a false result... Just simply brilliant by the Red Rose boys...!!
 
I don't know what Eddie Jones has done to this squad, but he has transformed them. Great defensive performance by the lads today. English Rugby owes such a lot to their new Aussie coach of the national side.

Completely agree. Was slightly sceptical when he was hired but what a turn around. Shame there's no autumn international against New Zealand coming up.

New Zealand are still No.1 though. I thought Wales had them beaten last week, but the Kiwis always seem to pull out something else. Worthy world champions, for sure.

3-0 whitewash...!! I never thought that would ever happen, especially in the land of the oz...

What a turnaround since Fast Eddie has come in. The Golds looked just short of that little something for most of the 3 tests but the resilience of the English in the tackle & scrum was just simply stunning. No shame in defeat for the Aussies, they have been beaten by a very good side in the making there...

Long may it reign...!!
 
Huge effort Red, worthy winners. This England turnaround since the World Cup has been amazing, it's probably one of the biggest stories in World Rugby in decades. Eddie of course gets plenty of credit, but if the squad isn't up to the punishment that Jones dishes out, then they go nowhere fast. England were amazing. <applause>
