Quade Cooper is back in decent rugby nick and looking to hold down a starting spot with Queensland Reds after a recent red card.
The Wallabies international copped a three-week ban for his sending off against the Lions but is knuckling down again. Good timing too as The Rugby Championship is not far off.
Bernard Foley is the man in possession of the No.10 gold jersey but Cooper, and his x-factor attacking qualities, can't be easily discounted.
Cooper is a divisive figure in Australian sport and just about every social media post of his gets a fair share of love and hate.
