Osaka ¨C Australia will aim to make a fresh start under new coach Les Kiss against Japan on Saturday, with just 14 months to go until it hosts the Rugby World Cup.
Kiss takes the reins as the Wallabies face Japan in sweltering Osaka for the first of two tests, with the return taking place next week in Townsville.
There is not a moment to lose for the new man in charge as he looks to turn a side that won just 12 of 31 tests under predecessor Joe Schmidt into a serious Rugby World Cup contender.
