Wallabies skipper James Horwill will not know until Tuesday whether he will play in Saturday night's series-deciding third Test against the British and Irish Lions.

The International Rugby Board (IRB) appeal into Horwill's dismissed rucking charge from the first Test has been adjourned after close to three hours of evidence and legal argument on Monday night.

Canadian arbitrator Graeme Mew stopped to consider his findings around 10.10pm (AEST) and rugby officials indicated he won't hand down his judgement at least for a couple of hours.

Horwill and Wallabies coach Robbie Deans left the hearing, held over a video link with Mew in Toronto, and turned in for the night at their Sydney team hotel.

The pair are due to front the media early on Tuesday morning.

Horwill was originally exonerated by New Zealand judicial officer Nigel Hampton QC last Sunday night after being cited for stamping on rival lock Alun Wyn Jones in the 23-21 first Test loss.

The Australian Rugby Union is incensed at the appeal - the first the IRB has launched against a player being cleared by one of their judicial officers - and has fought for their captain's availability with a crack legal team.

The Lions have already lost their captain for the ANZ Stadium decider after flanker Sam Warburton was ruled out with a hamstring injury on Monday afternoon.
