Halfway through the first half and to be honest I don't think either team will be too happy with their performance so far.

England, without firing too many shots, are looking relatively stress-free.

Marcus Smith is just so much more clever than everybody else. Under pressure, in his own defensive zone, he kicks the ball deep, into acres of space which gives England time to push up and reset their line.

You have got to take every opportunity at this level if you want to win Tests at this level.

Never in doubt. Farrell splits the posts.

Tommy Freeman was a cheetah in his past life. He does superbly for England on the left wing, gaining about 20 yards with a monster step. England then win a penalty and Farrell is opting to kick.

Robin Johnson: England falling back into their usual habit of cheap penalty after cheap penalty

Peter: C'mon guys, cut these teams a bit of slack. Both teams have huge pressure on them ... both have been told this is a must, MUST win.

First chance for England to do something as Jamie George intercepts.

Danny Care then kicks the ball behind which Australia have to jump on over the try line.

England need to wake up.

Australia have had almost as many chances in 10 minutes as they did in the second Test, and they have butchered them!

Australia cannot afford this, they have had two gilt-edged chances.

What is happening?

Taniela Tupou breaks clear but the prop can't lay off to Nick Frost who would have clean though.

His pass is too low and more fumbling eventually gives England a scrum. Both sides have not settled yet.

Ouch. Australia, already missing nine starters, could be down another as James Slipper clutches his right arm. He's okay to continue after a quick medical check but he'll be one to watch as the game goes on.

Mark Burt: Already dumb errors and gimmie penalties. Indiscipline and poor game awareness continue to define England

Lisa: Well this has started well...comedy of errors from both teams

Oh dear. It's error after error right now as Farrell's drop out is poor and hands Australia a scrum.

But the hosts can't make anything of it as Nick Frosts' pass is high and wide, going out over the sideline.

England are not going to be easy to score against today. Every opportunity - three, five, or seven - you have to take it.

That's a massive let-off.

Inches wide from Noah Lolesio. England are let off the hook.

Early penalty to Australia after England interfere at the ruck. They'll have a chance at some points.

Australia are well on top and dominating the opening exchanges. They've already driven the ball to England's 22.
