Australia has beaten Italy 30-20 in Padua with debutant Quade Cooper's late try helping the unimpressive Wallabies to the face-saving victory.
It was 14-14 at half time and the visitors were tied 20-20 against the dogged Italians with eight minutes to go.
But then substitute back Cooper danced through a muddle of players to put them in charge.
England beat the Pacific Islanders 39-13 at Twickenham in manager Martin Johnson's first game in charge, while South Africa beat Wales 20-15 in Cardiff.
