  1. Over and outpublished at 23:05

    England 13-33 Australia

    What a night. A phenomenally good Australia crush England at Twickenham, knocking Stuart Lancaster's men out of the World Cup. It is the first time a host nation has failed to make the knockout stages, and the first time England have failed to progress to the quarter-finals of a World Cup.  

    England were "torn apart by a superb Australia display," says BBC Sport's chief sports writer Tom Fordyce. You can read his report by clicking here.  

    Will this tournament have the same joie de vivre without the hosts? Wales and Australia won't care because they are through to the last eight. 

    Thanks, as always, for joining us. There will be more live commentary tomorrow, starting with Argentina's tussle with Tonga.

    Mr B: England - a total inability to handle pressure. Again a lack of control at the breakdown and shown up by a more streetwise team.

    That was the complete performance. We really need to compliment Australia. It was clinical. They were high-tempo and effective in everything they did. Can they get to that level again? Have they played one of their play-off matches in the pool round? I've not seen Australia play like that for that for two years.

    Another look at tomorrow's back pages, and it's another picture of England captain Chris Robshaw on his knees. "Down and OUT," writes the Daily Express.

    So, the official man of the match was England lock Joe Launchbury, beating Bernard Foley, who scored 28 points, and David Pocock, who mastered the breakdown. Life can be funny sometimes.

    They bowed out early in their own party, which perhaps explains why England's failure on home turf at this World Cup dominates the back pages. "Down and out," says the Independent.

    Should Stuart Lancaster's reign end? Yes, says Matt Dawson on BBC Radio 5 live. "England were not disciplined. He could not coach a disciplined team to get out of that pool and that is why he should go."

    Wales, depleted with injuries before and during the tournament, are through to the last eight after England's defeat. They will hope to beat Australia to top the Pool and avoid a quarter-final crunch with, possibly, South Africa.

    "I think what sticks out for me is, when Stuart Lancaster was talking about the squad, he said 'they've come up short'. I find that bizzare."

    More from Stuart Lancaster on BBC Radio 5 live...

    Have England moved forward in the last four years? "I do. Results wouldn't say that in terms of the World Cup, but overall we've won more games than we've lost and we've had some big scalps. 

    "We've had a young team who've come through and I think it's important people stick with the young players.

    "I think they're a fantastic group of players, they're great ambassadors for the country and fantastic role models. They've come up short today, but I don't think they'll come up short in the future."

    Will you now be considering your own position?: "Well, yeah. But I wouldn't think it would just be me. But it's not for now. It's too raw at the moment."

    England head coach Stuart Lancaster on BBC Radio 5 live: "We didn't perform well enough in the important games in our pool. It was always going to be a tough pool.

    "The last three years we've put in some pretty good performances, but on the day Australia were better. And that's what World Cups are all about; on the day.

    "I thought we played some pretty good rugby across the game, certainly in patches, but I thought David Pocock was outstanding in the breakdown and he's a special player."

    Bernard Foley's 28-point haul made him one of the star men for the Wallabies, but it's Michael Hooper and David Pocock who stood out among Australia's talented troops.

    "When you look at the way the Australian pack play, they're all distributors. Prop Sekope Kepu can pass as well as scrum-half Will Genia. And so can the locks and the second-rowers.

    "But did we see any of that from England? Not at all."

  20. We let the country down - Robshawpublished at 22:18

    Here's what England skipper Chris Robshaw had to say in full: "As you imagine the changing room is a very quiet place. We feel we let the country down today. As players we didn't quite get there. We apologise to them. Australia played very well - but we're gutted.

    "Credit to Australia, we knew across the board that they would put us under pressure and they were good today.

    "The yellow card for Owen Farrell was tough, we started to build a little momentum but left ourselves a little too much to do. We felt we built up some pressure but credit to their defence."
