Those were the words of Wallabies coach Les Kiss after the shellacking at the hands of England last week.

The Wallabies were horrible last weekend, looking like half of them were still on the plane from Sydney, with the others looking like they never even got on it to begin with.

Needless to say, tonight's match is vital.

England delivered a chastening message to Australian supporters last weekend, thrashing a woeful Wallabies 45-22.

The 22 points the Wallabies scored were barely deserved in truth, with two tries gifted via a rare Itoje drop and a wild intercept.

It was the sort of performance that demands a lot of questions be asked by the coaching team, and probably of them, too.

Here's the match recap, if you wanted to get your evening off to a bad start by reliving that atrocity of a performance.

Unfortunately for free to air fans, tonight's game is only available on Stan Sport.

We're set to start at 2:10am AEDT this morning.

That's your kick off time in New South Wales, the ACT, Victoria and Tasmania.

In Queensland we're looking at a 1:10am start.

In South Australia it's going to be 1:40am, in the Northern Territory it is a 0:40am start.

And out in Western Australia, it's still Sunday night for you folks, with kick off at 11:10pm.

Hello folks and welcome to ABC Sport's live coverage of Australia's crucial Test match against Scotland at Murrayfield.

My name is Simon Smale and, if you are one of the faithful alongside me at this ungodly hour, welcome!

There's little doubt that today's Test match is absolutely vital for the Wallabies.

OK, there is no chance of Australia making the final of the Nations Championship, but this is far more important for the Wallabies as the countdown to the 2027 Rugby World Cup ticks ever louder.

The terrible outing at Twickenham exposed a whole lot of problems for Australia. Can they make amends at Murrayfield?
