Australia has topped Pool A with the biggest win of the Rugby World Cup so far, downing Uruguay 65-3 last night.
After Wales comeback win over England, Australia continued to ease into the competition, scoring 11 tries against the pool’s weakest side.
The difference in size and physicality was evident from the kick off, and the Wallabies ran in five tries in the first half.
Joe Tomane and Dean Mumm crossed either side of a sin binning for Quade Cooper before Henry Speight’s first Test try sealed the bonus point.
There was time for one more try before the break from Ben McCalman as Australia led 31-3 at the break.
The Wallabies now top the pool ahead of their two key clashes with England and Wales.
A win at Twickenham next Saturday would guarantee them a spot in the last eight, almost certainly ending England’s chances in the process.
In other RWC matches, Ireland thrashed Romania 44-10 while Scotland beat USA 39-16.
Meanwhile, the Vodafone Flying Fijians will take on Wales at 3.45am Friday.
