Australia vs South Africa LIVE: Rugby Championship result and final score as Wallabies beat Springboks

That is some cover tackle from Marika Koroibete! South Africa’s maul transfer goes wrong but there is a load of room on the far side with Tom Wright still in the bin.

Lukhanyo Am produces a delicious pass to put Makazole Mapimpi into space, and the rapid wing looks set to score as Reece Hodge strains in vain to get across.

But as Mapimpi leaps for the line, Koroibete arrives like a freight train having tracked across on a long-haul service from the opposite wing. He thumps into Mapimpi, sending both ball and man spilling into touch.

Australia collapse the maul, and receive another warning about their discipline. South Africa fancy another go.

The crowd begins to get excited as a South African mishandle is hacked ahead by an Australian toe with Fraser McReight in hot pursuit, but the flanker had been offside in rushing up to shut down the space. Another penalty - another five-metre lineout.

The sloppiness continues - Folau Fainga’a’s lineout is not straight.

And South Africa’s scrum gets revenge. Handre Pollard prods into the hosts’ 22.

South Africa spot an unsecured ball at the base of an Australian ruck, and have it back.

There should be space in open pasture with the Wallabies shorn of Tom Wright, but South Africa just get a little condensed in the wide channels. Pieter-Steph du Toit shifts it on with little delay as he nears the touchline but Warrick Gelant had stalled his run to try and bite back on a switch, and the pass sails harmlessly into touch.

Australia whoop - penalty awarded their way! I thought James Slipper was a touch unlucky to be penalised at the last scrum, with Frans Malherbe appearing to slip his bind and drive on the angle, but this time the Wallabies’ skipper gets the call as he and his tight five show their steel at a crucial juncture.

Cynical stuff from the Wallabies wing, nary a metre back from Vermeulen as he taps and targets the line. Off he will go for a ten-minute sit down after his teammates somehow hold South Africa up.

The Springboks will take a scrum and attempt to again turn the screw, with Australia now a man short in the backline.

The battle between Frans Malherbe and James Slipper is a right mess, with the South Africa tighthead eventually rewarded.

Duane Vermeulen taps and darts for the line - surely Tom Wright isn’t back ten!...

The first attempt at a stable scrum spins on its axis. Reset.

Tapped back by Australia and Eben Etzebeth nearly gets his great paw on it! Etzebeth showed an impressive turn of speed to nearly beat Nic White to the bouncing ball, his longer arm reaching through White’s hands but not quite getting there first.

Carried back and grounded in-goal, so it will be a South Africa scrum five metres out.
