Hurting from a huge opportunity missed, skipper Michael Hooper says it will be a "long three weeks" before the Wallabies can look to make amends for their shortcomings against England.
After opening the three-Test series with a rousing victory in Perth and then a loss in Brisbane in game two, the Wallabies fancied their chances of taking down the old foe.
Instead they fell to a 21-17 loss in the deciding match at the SCG, allowing Eddie Jones's men to repeat their 2016 Test series triumph in Australia.
