England secured a 45-22 victory over Australia at Twickenham, on November 8, 2026, bouncing back from a tough run of form to claim their third bonus-point win in four rounds of the Nations Championship.
England had endured a difficult 2026, logging five losses in eight matches prior to this weekend fixture. According to information.tv5monde.com, the XV de la Rose answered those questions decisively by running in seven tries against a struggling Wallabies side.
Rugbyrama noted that Steve Borthwick’s team had not won at their home ground since February 2026. The drought ended emphatically as Jamie George and Joe Heyes punched over from powerful, well-orchestrated rolling mauls.
Le Figaro reported that this 45-22 scoreline stands as England’s largest-ever margin of victory against Australia. Ollie Chessum also dotted down in the first half following a sweeping attacking move across the width of the pitch.
The defining storyline of the afternoon centered on flanker Henry Pollock. Information.tv5monde.com explained that Pollock was thrust onto the wing in the 32nd minute after Immanuel Feyi-Waboso suffered a pivot-tackle injury.
Rugbyrama detailed how Feyi-Waboso hobbled off after drawing a yellow card via the video review “bunker” system for Angus Bell. Thrust into the unfamiliar wide channel, Pollock seized the moment with a devastating three-minute brace.
Le Figaro highlighted that Pollock crossed twice in quick succession during the second half. Jack van Poortvliet and late substitute Ben Spencer also added tries to cap the record score.
