Chieka credits Wallabies desire
Wallabies boss Michael Cheika credited his side’s desire to win after stunning England 33-13 at Twickenham.
Australia were by far the better side as they took control of Pool A ahead of facing Wales.
"We really wanted it. Really wanted to play well, we were really hungry," Cheika revealed.
"We knew there would be a lot of pain being in England's backyard, and the atmosphere was outrageously loud, and that's not an easy thing to deal with when you're in the minority like that.
"We just wanted to get stuck in and that's what we did from the start.
"We managed the darker period in the second half a lot better than we have in the past and got back into it towards the end.”
