Prop John and lock Rowlands were forced off with head injuries as Wales secured a 38-23 victory last weekend and both have been released from the squad.

John’s fellow tighthead Tomas Francis is following return-to-play protocols after being concussed in training last week.

Wing Josh Adams, who was withdrawn from the starting line-up just before kick-off against Fiji due to a calf muscle issue, is also being monitored ahead of the Wallabies clash, along with No.8 Aaron Wainwright, who has had a shoulder injury.

The match against the Wallabies is injury-ravaged Wales’ final fixture of a punishing end-of-year campaign, which has included defeats at the hands of the All Blacks and South Africa.
