Cooper signs two-year Aussie deal

Fly-half Quade Cooper has finally ended speculation surrounding his future by signing a new two-year deal with the Australian Rugby Union and Queensland.

Cooper, who will make his professional boxing debut in February, has been shrouded in controversy after publicly declaring the Wallabies had become a “toxic environment”.

He was fined 60,000 Australian dollars and later rejected an incentive-based contract with the ARU last month before finally agreeing to terms.
