The Wallabies captain and halfback Will Genia has undergone successful knee surgery in Brisbane.

Genia had a full ACL reconstruction in his right knee after sustaining the injury during last Saturday night's 26-19 win over the Springboks in Perth.

Genia will be sidelined for an estimated six months before he can return to action.
