Ireland win a penalty at a scrum inside their own 22 and can lift the siege they have been under. Real bravery from the hosts' pack, they would not yield.
After being on the back foot for 10 minutes Australia have now assumed control and these are dangerous times for Ireland.
The visitors have brought on the mighty 6ft 8in, 20-stone Will Skelton by the way - a bear with the handling skills of a watch maker.

"Wales will be happy with the first 25 minutes. They've kicked well, and into the right areas. It's clearly a tactic to test Charles Piutau and Julian Savea, and it's worked really well."
Wales have been peppering the All Black wingers with bombs. That is the first one that has been recovered as Dan Biggar rips Rhys Webb's box-kick from Charles Piutau's grasp in the aerial contest.
The Fields of Athenry rings round the Aviva Stadium as the home fans give the vocal chords a work out. A huge roar greets the end of the song which coincides with a scrum deep inside the Ireland 22.
Conor Murray has now been called off the pitch by the match doctor - I have to say I think that's the right decision - he may well have had the benefit of seeing a replay of the accident with Quade Cooper's knee.
A nerve-steadying shot of three points, please barkeep.
Beauden Barrett thumps over from distance to put his earlier miss behind him.
Paul James is having a bit of bother at scrum-time. The prop is pinged for boring in and Beauden Barrett is going to take on another kick - this time from up near halfway.
Happy with a three-point lead with 10 to go Ireland fans?

"You could hear that hit all the way up here. But Sonny Bill Williams will be back for more."
Sonny Bill Williams must have thought he was back in league as he scrapped his senses back together.
The All Black centre juggled the ball into contact and failed to spot the blonde shape of Richard Hibbard in his peripheral vision.
Williams takes a moment after being flattened by a nipple-high hit from the hooker.
Conor Murray takes a blow to the head as Quade Cooper tries to fly-hack the ball on. Surely he will have to go off after that?
But no, he's allowed to play on. Not sure about that.
Under the gaze of waterboy Dan Carter, Beauden Barrett screws his kick wide.
Creaky, very creaky....

"There's 15 minutes left, which is hard to believe.
"It's been nip and tuck all the way along with both sides trying to play rugby.
"You just sense it's there for someone to take the initiative."
George North scuttles backwards to claim Beauden Barrett's cross-kick, but Wayne Barnes calls play back for the original offence and the All Black points to the sticks.
New Zealand are crowbarring their way back into the game. Up to the Wales 22-metre line and now with a penalty advantage to play with...
Alun Wyn Jones swats down Dane Coles' line-out throw to turn over the ball. Dan Biggar takes the chance to test Julian Savea's aerial skills with a booming up-and-under.
The All Black wing passes with merit, collecting under pressure from Alex Cuthbert before three men are required to shove him into touch.
Ireland are back in front as Johnny Sexton slots a penalty.
Australia respond by bringing on the maverick's maverick, Quade Cooper, at fly-half for Bernard Foley.

"It was one of those strange moments in rugby.
"Rob Kearney had so much time and the crowd were wondering if he would take the kick.
"It was a good 43-metre kick and it had the legs, but just hit the post."
Rob Kearney has just hit the woodwork with a drop-goal from the 10m line (OK, I admit, I edited it. I got a little over-excited initially, it wasn't the halfway line after all. Still huge though).
Not just that, but he hit the post about two-third of the way up. Inches from giving Ireland the lead again.

"Soccer's not George's forte. He won't want to see that again. But it's so far so good for Wales defensively."
