Farah sustained a grade three AC joint injury in his left shoulder which will sideline him for at least two weeks. He will miss the Tigers round 13 clash against the Gold Coast and will be racing the clock to be fit for Origin II which will be in Melbourne on June 17.
Farah played the bulk of NSW's 11-10 loss to Queensland on Wednesday night with the shoulder injury after being slammed in the turf in a Justin Hodges tackle in the 28th minute.
Despite protests from the Blues camp, Hodges was not charged for the tackle. Farah made a game high 58 tackles, while filling in as skipper for the injured Paul Gallen. Michael Ennis, Nathan Peats and Ryan Hinchcliffe would come into contention should Farah be ruled out.
Gallen and winger Brett Morris are expected to return for the Blues in their must win game against Queensland.
