Henry Pollock claims pivotal try as England pull away to beat Australia

Henry Pollock delivered the pivotal try as England’s bench turned the tide in a 25-7 victory over Australia at Allianz Stadium that launched the autumn with their eighth successive win.

The arrival of five British and Irish Lions with half an hour left was decisive against the Wallabies, whose revival was halted when Pollock showed speed and skill to run in his third Test try in the 60th minute, building an eight-point lead at a stage when the match was finely poised.

Tries from Alex Mitchell and Luke Cowan-Dickie then propelled England out of sight, clinching their first win against one of the southern hemisphere big three since 2022.
