England missed out on a netball medal after suffering a second crushing defeat to Australia on the final day of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

The Roses fell away after a promising first quarter to lose 68-50, emulating their earlier 66-47 defeat to the Diamonds in the group phase.

Australia, who had been forced to quickly regroup after Saturday’s stunning last-gasp semi-final loss to Jamaica, dominated the second half of the contest to secure the bronze medal.

It is the first time Australia have not contested a netball final since the sport was introduced to the Games in 1998. Jamaica are set to face New Zealand in the gold medal match later on Sunday.
