WALES will face a reunion with Australia along with a clash with dangerous Georgia in the 2019 World Cup in Japan.
Warren Gatland's men were drawn in Pool D for the tournament along with Oceania 1, potentially Fiji or Samoa, and Americas 2, potentially Canada.
They faced the Wallabies in the group stages two years ago, losing at Twickenham to lead to a quarter-final with South Africa that they lost, and lock horns with upcomers Georgia for the first time in the autumn.
Six Nations champions England have drawn another 'group of death' with France and Argentina while holders New Zealand face a heavyweight group stage clash with South Africa.
