England coach Stuart Barrow says his squad has moved on from last year's Las Vegas defeat before Saturday night's World Cup meeting with Australia in Perth.
"It's buried, it's in the past," Barrow said.
"It's so long ago and this is a different group, a new group and we're ready to go with the challenge now, this group's challenge."
Australia beat England 90-4 in Las Vegas in March last year, scoring 17 tries to one.
Tamika Upton scored five tries, while Julia Robinson and Jess Sergis each scored three.
The Jillaroos opened their tournament with a 40-0 win over Fetu Samoa in Sydney last Friday.
England, meanwhile, beat Wales 70-6 in Perth last week.
Australia are favourites to claim a fourth World Cup title, with some betting markets offering odds of $1.04 for the Jillaroos to win a fourth consecutive tournament.
Some bookmakers are not taking bets on an Australian victory over England.
Jillaroos hooker Keeley Nizza said in Perth on Monday that she did not expect another Las Vegas-style result.
"I definitely don't think there'll be a similar result (as in Las Vegas),"
"I think England are a very different team to last year, and we know they'll come out with a different intensity.
"We always know against England it's a tough match."
Nizza said players accept the expectations that come with wearing the Australian jersey, though outside pressure has increased.
"I feel like any time you put this jersey on, whether you're playing or training, there's an expectation that comes with it internally," she said.
"So the expectation is there anyway. But yeah, there's definitely been a bit more with the outside looking in.
"But I feel like everybody in this position has high expectations of themselves."
