The Waratahs are concerned over the fitness of openside flanker Michael Hooper who limped off during his side’s 18‑11 defeat to the Western Force on Saturday.
Hooper appeared to sustain a knee injury in the 69th minute of the clash in Perth.
The Wallabies captain tried to play on but was eventually forced to leave the field for the first time in more than a year.
