Wales drawn with England and Australia for 2015 Rugby World Cup
WALES have been drawn with hosts England and former champions Australia in the pool stages of the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
The other two sides in Pool A will be the play-off winners and qualifiers from Oceania 1, neither of which have been confirmed yet.
It is a daunting task for Wales, who slipped outside the top eight of the IRB world rankings following Saturday's 14-12 defeat to Australia.
That left them as third seeds, with England in the second pot and Australia included in Pool A as top seeds.

“This is the best group that Wales could have been drawn in,,no fear of any of these teams, its 3 years away and we have 6 nation games to show how good we are.”
