Winning the 2029 home World Cup is the ambitious and unashamed motivation behind Rugby Australia appointing successful sevens coach Tim Walsh as the women's high-performance director.
Walsh will transition into the newly created role on July 1, charged with overseeing both the Wallaroos' 15-a-side game and the sevens programs.
One bronze medal in 2010 is the best Australia have placed in 10 World Cups, with the Wallaroos crushed 46-5 by Canada at last year's edition in England.
Even RA boss Phil Waugh concedes three years is barely enough time for the 2029 tournament hosts to bridge the gap on heavyweights England, New Zealand, Canada and the USA.
But Walsh was bullish when asked what a successful next campaign would look like for the Wallaroos.
