Exeter Chiefs duo Jack Nowell and Luke Cowan-Dickie both came off the bench as England beat the Wallabies for only the fourth time in Australia as they triumphed 39-28 in a mighty battle in the first Test in Brisbane.
The win looked unlikely when they fell 10-0 behind early on as Michael Hooper and Israel Folau scored for the hosts, but Eddie Jones’ side hit back through the boot of Owen Farrell and tries from Jonathan Joseph and Marland Yarde.
After the break Australia – who included Greg Holmes and Dean Mumm in their ranks – rallied as Hooper and Tevita Kuridrani crossed...

Julian Salvi admitted the only thing missing from an “amazing” first year with the Exeter Chiefs was failing to pick up the Aviva Premiership title at Twickenham.
Brought to Devon last summer from Leicester Tigers, the Australian open-side has been a near ever-present for Rob Baxter’s side during a stellar campaign, which finished up at the home of English rugby in Saturday’s showpiece event.
Sadly, though, the Chiefs – playing in their first-ever Premiership final – could not cap what has been a year to remember for them as they went down narrowly to defending champions...
In the end it wasn’t quite to be for Exeter Chiefs, but Gareth Steenson insists the club have plenty to proud of following a quite outstanding season.
Undone 28-20 in Saturday’s Aviva Premiership final by Saracens, the dreams of a first-ever top flight title will have to wait for Rob Baxter’s side a little longer.

Jack Yeandle and Jack Nowell went over for the Chiefs to trim a 23-3 lead for Saracens to just three points at the close of the second half .
“Is there anything that I can say or do or could we have had anything different before hand? I don’t think so. I think that we needed that first half-hour of a final, that’s the easiest way for me to wrap that up,” Baxter said.
“We needed that and what they felt like and the...
In the end there was to be no fairytale ending for Exeter Chiefs, but boy did Rob Baxter’s side put up an unbelievable fight.
Pitted against European and defending Aviva Premiership champions Saracens, Devon’s finest picked themselves off the deck following a first half flooring to shock their rivals with a ferocious second half fightback.
In the end, the Chiefs didn’t have quite enough in the tank as their spirited challenge was finally ended late on by a try from man of the match Alex Goode.
Having trailed 23-6 at the break to first half tries from Duncan Taylor...

The England international is set for 12 weeks on the sidelines after suffering damage to his medial ligament in the closing stages of Exeter’s 34-23 victory.
Waldrom’s absence will be felt by the Chiefs as the 33-year-old not only has...
An estate agency says that if Exeter Chiefs win the coveted prize of the Aviva Premiership title this weekend it could mean more than a medal for those living close to the Chiefs home ground, Sandy Park.
