Australia will make their first Grand Slam rugby tour of Europe since 2009, after the addition of a Test against Wales as a revenue-raising exercise.

The Wallabies have played the four home nations on tour only three times since Alan Jones' team led by Mark Ella completed the Grand Slam in 1984. The the 2013 tourists will also play Italy.

Australian Rugby Union chief executive Bill Pulver confirmed the Wales Test on Thursday at a sports and business networking event in Sydney.
