Five things we learned about the Wallabies after their loss to England at Twickenham Fox Sports rugby commentator slams the Wallabies performance and attitude after yet another loss, this time to England at Twickenham. England's defence kept Israel Folau and the Wallabies tryless in the second half at Twickenham. AUSTRALIA'S Spring Tour got off to a disappointing start as the Wallabies crashed to a 20-13 defeat against England at Twickenham. What did we learn from that loss? The Grand Slam dream remains just that Dream? More like a nightmare. There was a reasonable sense of optimism heading into the Spring Tour - not necessarily that the Wallabies would win all their clashes against the four home nations (plus Italy) to emulate Andrew Slack's 1984 side, but that they might at least give it a decent shake. Before departing Australia coach Ewen McKenzie even went so far as to declare: "We're out there to win - five wins would be good." Not so fast. Facing an England side that hadn't played a Test together for six months and that was missing two of its key forwards, the Wallabies looked well placed to kick off their campaign with a second-straight win at Twickenham. Instead the Grand Slam bid has, as The Courier-Mail's Jim Tucker wrote, turned into a Grand Sham. Even more worryingly the momentum built by two seemingly decent results - an `improved' effort against the All Blacks and the Rosario rout of Argentina - appears to have been eroded by this disheartening result. The Wallabies now have to regroup quickly before they face an Italian side motivated to claim a first win against Australia. The scrum is very much a work in progress A new year, but the same old story as the Wallaby scrum again buckled against a superior England eight. The talk entering this match bordered on optimism for the Aussie set-piece, which had the advantage of having already played under the new scrums rules and even garnered pre-match praise from a usually brutal English press. Three early penalties conceded by the visitors quickly put paid to any suggestions the Wallabies might gain something nearing parity and they were on the back foot, or spinning around like a `disco' for much of the match. It's a problem that doesn't look like going away. Brumbies director of rugby and renowned forwards tactician Laurie Fisher was moved to tweet after the match: "Irrespective of referee calls, I'm baffled by Wallabies attitude to scrummaging. Pressure and dominance controls the whole tempo of a game. Wallabies are still their own worst enemies Yep, referee George Clancy and his team came up with a couple of shockers. Two officiating errors occurred in the build-up to tries - indeed one directly resulted in an England five-pointer, when the curious ``not enough obstruction" call was made after Owen Farrell waltzed past a clearly impeded Stephen Moore to put his side in front. But blaming the referee just hides the fact that fact that the Wallabies were, overall, their own worst enemies. They didn't score a point in the second half after taking a somewhat surprise lead to the break. After Farrell missed three very kickable penalties in the opening 40 minutes that might have seen his side build a healthy lead, the Wallabies managed to forge ahead 13-6. Instead of taking advantage of that gift, they didn't fire a shot after the break and England looked the only side likely to score - which they did. The linesman might have erred in failing to spot that fullback Mike Brown was out as he attempted to reel in a touch-bound kick, but he didn't let England forge nearly 100m up the field afterwards to score. Throw in more poor decisions and execution in kicking, dropped balls - the same old errors still haunt this side. Will Genia's kicking game was below par against England. Genia needs to give kicking the boot Will Genia's kicking is not up to scratch. In fact it's nowhere near up to scratch at Test level. Even when dominating for Queensland Reds in their Super Rugby triumph of 2011, Genia's kicking - back into the box in particular - wasn't up to standard. He is either not getting enough protection to execute the box-kick or there is a problem with his technique in that he needs to start taking a step towards his own goal-line before hoisting the ball into the air. The charge-down try aside, there was also a kick out on the full, one straight to England fullback Mike Brown and a couple more that resulted in easy turnovers. Scott Fardy on the charge for the Wallabies. The pack lacks mongrel minus Fardy It's no coincidence England started to get on top following Scott Fardy's early exit with concussion. The Wallabies No. 6 is providing much of the aggression around the breakdown - as well as being an invaluable guard at the back of the lineout - to the extent the side almost looks leaderless up front without him. Fardy has since been cleared of any serious injury and was reportedly walking around in the dressingroom after the match. The concussion should see him miss this week's clash against Italy however, meaning someone else will need to step up and confront what is sure to be a fired up Italian pack.
