The Wallabies' wretched World Cup just goes from bad to worse, with Carter Gordon and Nick Frost ruled out for the rest of the tournament through injury.
Lock Frost suffered a right knee joint injury in the victory over Portugal on Sunday, with scans showing he won't be available for selection in the unlikely event Australia make the quarter-finals.
The 22-year-old Gordon picked up his knee cartilage injury at training last week and is flying back to Australia for treatment as soon as possible, Rugby Australia announced on Wednesday.
