I believe England was planning on that but figured it would be unfair to the aboriginals of Australia. They could have lost some land, and the Britons certainly didn't want to treat their new friends like that. It would be against good European and Christian manners. /S

There’s a reason we don’t celebrate Australia Day it’s the day they came and wiped out the aborigines in the masses
