Get real folks.
Aussie probably knew that they could afford not to win today and still make the final.
After all, they have 2 easy games to come and they have given 5 players ? their debut.
They will very likely beat England and will definitely beat Samoa.

Not buying that for a second Australia. This is Australia. They are playing New Zealand at the suncorp stadium in front of nearly 50k. They didn't throw it, they got battered by the kiwis.
On paper England can do the Aussies. But as we've learnt over the years, never write them off. I expect Australia to still beat us. But they are missing a number of superstars. They are far from guaranteed the win and could realistically miss the final.
They will get a battering from the Aussie press in the morning.
