Only two Stirling Mortlock penalties separated the sides at the break, but then the Wallabies stepped up a gear in the second half to ensure a big score.

Mortlock kicked another penalty before Digby Ioane, Drew Mitchell and Julian Huxley touched down, with Mortlock converting twice.

Captain Mortlock told Sky Sports afterwards: "Yet again we had a scrappy start to the game. We knew it was going to be slippery out there but we knew we had to lift our game.

"We got into a bit of rhythm in the second half, George (Gregan) coming on at half-time helped stabilise the team.

"There were a lot of things we needed to improve (at half-time), and we put in 40 quality minutes in second half. But there is still a lot of improvement left in us."

Wales' Chris Czekaj suffered a broken leg in a tackle by Wallabies hooker Stephen Moore during the first half.

A shudder went through the crowd when the sickening incident was replayed on the big screen at the Suncorp Stadium, and the Cardiff wing now faces a long stint on the sidelines.
