England boss Stuart Lancaster has admitted that he cannot wait for "a big party" following the draw for the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
The hosts have been drawn in Pool A alongside Wales and Australia, but they did avoid holders New Zealand.
"Australia have just beaten us and if you look at the age and profile of their squad, they have got some young lads as well. We will look forward to it. It is unbelievably exciting. Twelve months ago I went out to New Zealand for two weeks and got a little sample of what it is like and the impact on that country.
"We have seen what the Olympic Games did for our country and the next big sporting event is the 2015 Rugby World Cup. By that time everybody is going to be revved up and it's going to be a big party."
The tournament kicks off on September 18, 2015.
