Quade Cooper to leave Australian Rugby?

Quade CooperQuade Cooper has reportedly quit Australian rugby after being offered a meagre incentive-based contract.
According to Australian television the mercurial fly-half has turned his back on the Australian Rugby Union and the Wallabies and will look to continue his career overseas or switch to rugby league.
Cooper has a Super Rugby contract with Queensland but that agreement is contingent upon a contract with the game’s governing body.
The controversial playmaker has been at odds with the ARU for several months over his comment on the Wallabies set-up, including claims of a ‘toxic” environment under coach Robbie Deans.
Three weeks ago Cooper was hit with a £26.000 (AUS $40.000) fine and a suspended playing ban in a code-of-conduct hearing into his comments.
Reports of Cooper’s decision to leave Australian rugby behind came after he was only offered an incentive-based contract by the ARU, of the kind usually reserved for international rookies.
