Waratahs half-back Brendan McKibbin has been handed his first-call up for Australia for the team's European tour clash against Wales at the weekend.
McKibbin has been called up to replace Brett Sheehan, who limped out of the win over Italy on Saturday.
An Australia statement read: "A post-game X-ray later cleared Sheehan of any broken bones and he has travelled to Wales with the squad today ahead of the James Bevan Trophy Test, but will be unable to play a part in the match.
"Sheehan will undergo scans in the coming days in Cardiff to determine both the extent of his injury and the course of rehabilitation required.
"The new player is expected to arrive in Cardiff on Tuesday morning and will become the fourth replacement to have joined the tour following on from Melbourne Rebels trio Scott Higginbotham, Mitch Inman and Caderyn Neville."
McKibbin has also played for the Queensland Reds.
