More than 120 NRL stars will be competing in the toughest Rugby League World Cup ever.

Australian Kangaroos head coach Tim Sheens said he has been in rugby league coaching for 30 years and experience tells him this World Cup is going to be one of the toughest campaigns Australia has ever been involved in.

Sonny Bill Williams, Sam Burgess and more than 120 other NRL players are scattered across all the nations, waiting to ambush Australia.

The Kangaroos are the top seeds and the favorites, the Kiwis are the reigning champs, England is on home soil and the Fiji Bati has some solid NRL players. 

Sheens said only time will tell who is the best rugby league team in the world.

The Kangaroos will take on England in the opening match of the 2013 Rugby League World Cup which will be played at the New Millennium Stadium in Cardiff on the 27th of this month. 

Meanwhile, the Vodafone Fiji Bati will take on Ireland in their first match on the 29th at 7am before meeting the Kangaroos at Nov 3rd.
