Wales have drafted Tyson Frizell into their World Cup squad. The Sydney-based second-rower, who turned 22 today, was initially ruled out through injury but coach Iestyn Harris kept a place open in his squad.

Frizell, who made his debut against Ireland in 2011 and played in the subsequent Four Nations Series, missed last year's autumn international series through injury.

He has made 22 appearances for St George Illawarra this season and will be Wales' only NRL representative.
