Wales to stage Rugby World Cup quarter final

ORGANISERS of the 2007 Rugby World Cup have announced that the Pool B encounter between Wales and Australia will be played in Cardiff.

Though an IRB statement issued yesterday denied any such deal, the French and Welsh unions remain adamant the game will be played at the Millennium Stadium.

Hosts for RWC 2007, the French Rugby Federation, have also given games to Scotland and Ireland, but have announced that the Millennium Stadium will be the only venue outside of France to stage a quarter-final.
