    It's intense, it's ferocious, but it's pretty drab as well and the man who's stood out most is referee Craig Joubert.

    There's notbhing in it. The only worry I have is Wales are slightly one dimensional. Australia look a little bit more dangerous in attack."

    Wales 6-9 Australia

    More bone-headed play from Wales. Sam Warburton round the side, past the back foot and clearly offside.

    Matt Giteau takes on the kick from halfway, but he can't make the distance.

    And that is the last action of the first half. Absorbing stuff.

    That is Dan Biggar's first miss in 16 attempts at this World Cup."

    Wales 6-9 Australia

     The touch-judges needed several checks. So did the spectators inside Twickenham. But, yep, that Dan Biggar kick from a nice spot has drifted wide.

    The flags stay down, Australia stay in front.

    Harsh Alex. It is more fibrous fare, but still plenty to enjoy.

    "It's amazing to see kickers who are so in tune with their technique. You've just got to applaud it."

    Quade who?

    Bernard Foley is out Carter-ing Dan Carter so far in this tournament.

    Another nerveless kick.

  13. Wales 6-6 Australiapublished at 35 miins

    The cheese is dangled in front of Taulupe Faletau and the Wales number eight bites.

    He is offside though as he pounces for a ball at the back of the ruck. Will Genia moans to the ref and gets the penalty call.

    Bernard Foley is going for the poles.

    "That was a little bit silly from Stephen Moore, the captain. He wasn't very happy and threw the ball away and the penalty moved forward 10 metres. You don't want to mess with Craig Joubert, the referee, or you're gone."

    A good response from Wales - they needed that penalty.

    Wales 6-6 Australia (Biggar)

    Everyone do the Biggar.

    The Wales fly-half goes through his pre-kick routine, dusting off the shoulder, combing the quiff and knocking over the kick.

    Parity once more.

  17. Wales 3-6 Australiapublished at 32 mins

    Sean McMahon obstructs Gareth Davies as he chases up Gareth Anscombe's kick. Penalty Wales on halfway. Backchat from Wallabies hooker Stephen Moore. That is an extra 10 metres and makes up Welsh minds.

    Posts please sir.

    That is the difference...Australia have been dominant in the last 10 minutes and they have come away with six points. Wales were dominant for the first 20 minutes and scored three points."

    Wales 3-6 Australia

    Wales have dominated territory and possession - they were camped in the Australia 22 for a considerable time - but you wouldn't know from the scoreboard.

    Wales' strategy of holding the Australians up and turning it into a maul has worked really, really well. They'll take conceding three points from that passage of play."
