Rugby-Wales keen to grasp the carrot but wary of Wallabies stick


LYON, France (Reuters) - Winger Josh Adams said Wales are highly motivated by the opportunity to clinch a place in the World Cup quarter-finals when they play Australia this weekend, but are also wary of the threat a desperate Wallabies side might present.

Two bonus-point wins combined with Australia's loss to Fiji last weekend have put the Welsh firmly in the driving seat in Pool C and Adams said they were determined to drive home their advantage at OL Stadium on Sunday.
