"We're all gutted": That from Wallabies coach Eddie Jones. His team's effectively been bundled out of the Rugby World Cup, after a record loss to Wales.

The Wallabies were trounced 40-6 in Lyon - suffering their worst defeat at a Rugby World Cup.

It means they've missed the knock out stages of the tournament for the first time ever - unless Fiji loses to either Georgia or Portugal.
