The arch enemies meet in Marseille next Saturday, after England booked a quarter-final place by beating Tonga 36-20 at Parc des Princes - it will be the latest in a series of high-octane meetings between the countries which include World Cup finals in 1991 and 2003, plus a 1995 quarter-final.

Dallaglio said: "We've qualified. There is lots to work on, but we got what we wanted out of the game - which was a win - and we now move on to the quarter-final."

He added: "We invited them [Tonga] on to our line, and we need to move up and tackle - because Australia are one of the best sides for putting people out of shape and creating space.

"Defensively, we are going to have to be at our very, very best if we are to win this game. We can improve in that area, I'm sure, and we need to - we are aware of that.

"It is a big fixture, but forget the team you are playing against - it is a World Cup quarter-final."
