The Wallabies' resurgence has copped a hammer blow with confirmation of a likely long-term knee injury for in-form fullback Tom Wright.
The No.15 will return home and consult specialists after scans confirmed an anterior cruciate ligament injury suffered early in Saturday's 30-22 loss to South Africa in Cape Town.
Wright, a star of last week's triumph in Johannesburg, has emerged as one of the world's premier fullbacks to power Joe Schmidt's improved Wallabies.
