A battered England will arrive in Australia on Sunday on the back of consecutive Test losses to New Zealand for a World Cup final rematch against a Wallabies side yet to hit top form.

The Wallabies were again scratchy in downing Scotland 34-13 in the second Test at Telstra Stadium on Saturday night, only running away with the match at the death.

Lote Tuqiri was awarded man of the match for his two-try effort while five eighth Stephen Larkham also had a strong game with the ball in hand.

A 14-man England side went down to the All Blacks in England on Saturday night 36-12 and appear to be a shadow of the side that won the World Cup last November.

Australia will play England at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane on Saturday.
