Shane Williams is struggling because he of his injury which he faced in the match against South Africa, so his inclusion to Six Nations is now doubtful
According to a reports a surgery will take place and he will not be able to play rugby for at least 10 weeks.
This injury will lead out him of the Ospreys' remaining Heineken Cup pool matches and the focus will be on his return in the Six Nations opener against England in Cardiff on February 4.
"It's a big blow," conceded Wales coach Warren Gatland, who has handed Newport Gwent Dragons wing Aled Brew the number 11 shirt against Fiji on Friday nigh
"We saw what Shane did when he was on in the first half against South Africa.
"He created a try, he got himself involved and I thought the mix between the wings (Williams and George North) was fantastic. He's a loss for us.
"The silver lining to this perhaps is that he gets a chance to do some training, to freshen up over the next few months, and fingers crossed he might be available for part of the Six Nations and then hopefully again for next year."
