Fantastic composure from Australia. It was on far right, they had numbers the entire time but they took their time. Matt Toomua has had an impact straight away.

This might not be done just yet.

Outstanding control by the Welsh, they are just in their groove. Grinding at the breakdown, pressure, pressure, pressure, and then Patchell - it was not pretty, but got the job done.
Rhys Patchell
Brick-by-brick Wales are boxing in Australia.
Rhys Patchell lands a drop goal and hymns and aria are swirling around Tokyo Stadium.

Wales flanker Aaron Wainwright has been outstanding. Picked ahead of Ross Moriarty again in the back-row, the Dragons flanker set the tone in the opening minute and has been immense in attack and defence. Only just turned 22, Wainwright has been Wales' find of 2019.

Under pressure from Aaron Wainwright torpedoing towards his thighs, Bernard Foley drops the ball and knocks on.
England coach Eddie Jones is in the crowd. He is jeered by the Aussie-Welsh majority in the crowd and cheered by the locals as he appears on the big screen.

Kyle: Wales have been superb and fully deserve their lead. As an Englishman nice to see Australia get a thrashing and it has been so far. If Wales keep playing as they are they could win this game by 20 or 30 points. Could be England vs Australia in the quarters.
David Jarvis: I suppose you could call it consistent refereeing but surely Australia should have had at least one yellow card in the first half?
Wales 23-8 Australia
This might be the worse piece of Australia diplomacy since Sir Les Patterson.
After Michael Hooper argued the toss over Samu Kerevi's lead-arm penalty in the first half, now David Pocock is chewing Romain Poite's ear about the instructions at the breakdown.
Anyway, we are back under way.

Six handling errors to four and turnovers won Wales have had six at the breakdown to two for Australia. We have lost our cohesion through lack of control, lack of holding the ball and putting pressure on Wales.
I need to have a few minutes to collect myself, it's been so fast and it is so hot and humid. We know how well the Wallabies have prepared for this tournament but they looked a little bit off there. Wales are in their element, playing great rugby, the set-piece is great apart from their line-out.
Australia will be saying there are a lot of things they can do better. They'll still have confidence.

Image source, PAThat is one of Wales' most impressive 40 minutes under Warren Gatland. They started superbly and rallied when Australia looked like they would come back into the game.
Tries from Gareth Davies and Hadleigh Parkes and successful kicking from Dan Biggar and Rhys Patchell has kept Wales ticking over and the Wallabies on the back-foot.
Wales have also had to cope with Biggar going off after failing a head injury assessment but Patchell has been impressive.
Australia look rattled and could have seen captain Michael Hooper or even Samu Kerevi sin-binned for a late tackle and leading forearm.
The pace has been relentless in humid conditions in Tokyo. We will see whether they can keep this up in the second-half.

Wales is well deserving of the lead, whether it is a 15-point differential I'm not so sure. Overall they are well deserving of a good lead going into half-time.

Gareth Davies, so cool that he must have deicer rather than blood flowing round that body, takes a look at the stadium clock as he retrieves the ball from the base of the breakdown, trots to the touchline and calmly waits for the clock to turn red before booting out out to end the half.

We said Wales scrum-half Gareth Davies was the intercept king and he has proved it with a brilliant try.
Davies picked off Will Genia's pass and sprinted away to score. Rhys Patchell, who is on now for Dan Biggar as a permanent replacement after Biggar failed his head injury assessment, converts to give Wales a 23-8 half-time lead. Wales are in dream land at the moment.

My goodness! That is unbelievable!
I am going to say he was onside, Will Genia picked the ball up and took two steps before passing.

Massive score!
Gareth Davies reads Will Genia's pass to Allan Alaalatoa like it is has been plastered across a billboard in twenty-foot high letters.
The Wales scrum-half has gas to burn and even from 70m there is no catching him.
With Patchell's conversion, that puts Wales 15 points up and, perhaps, maybe, out of sight.
