Wales qualifies for Rugby World Cup quarterfinals by crushing Australia 40-6

Wales became the first Rugby World Cup team to qualify for the quarterfinals on Sunday while virtually shutting the door on Australia's hopes. Wales rope-a-doped the Wallabies. The Wallabies have never missed the quarterfinals but losing consecutive pool games for the first time in 36 years left their fate in the hands of their tiny Pacific neighbor Fiji, which upended them last week.
