LONDON: England captain Maro Itoje said he was "over the moon" after his side opened their November Nations Championship campaign with a record 45-22 win over Australia at Twickenham on Sunday.
Itoje's men ran in seven tries, Henry Pollock scoring two after coming off the bench at half-time to replace injured wing Immanuel Feyi-Waboso.
Their final tally of 45 points was the most England had managed in a Test against Australia, surpassing the 44 they managed in a 44-40 win in Sydney 2016.
Victory eased the pressure on England coach Steve Borthwick, in the spotlight after his side had lost five of their eight previous Tests in 2026.
