Detailed summary

Amid talk of disunity in the England camp, Harry Wilson's Wallabies are ready to find if the stories have a ring of truth as they seek victory at Twickenham.

Harry Wilson reckons the Wallabies are ready to test England's reported lack of unity at Twickenham while looking to unleash a key 'X-factor' strike weapon from their bench.

The build-up to Sunday's Nations Championship Test has been dominated by the stories about unrest within the England camp at their Pennyhill Park base, leaving Australia's captain Wilson to suggest his team will be out to discover whether there's any truth in the supposed disunity.

Asked on the eve of the match whether any unrest in the opposition camp might galvanise or disrupt the hosts, Wilson mused: "It could go one or two ways for them, and I guess it's on us to put them under pressure to see how close they are as a team."

But the skipper was also keen to make the point of just what a united outfit his own team has become.
