MELBOURNE : Flyhalf Quade Cooper has joined midfielder Samu Kerevi and loose forward Sean McMahon in opting out of Australia's tour of Britain in another blow for the Wallabies' hopes of finishing the season on a high.

Cooper has been one of the pillars of Australia's resurgence since he replaced inexperienced playmaker Noah Lolesio during the Rugby Championship, helping steer the side to five test wins in succession."We spoke. He obviously wanted the blessing of the club . "We talked about maybe some flexibility around the tour dates. At the end he felt that he needed to support his club, his employer.Lolesio will replace Cooper in the squad, Rennie added, though James O'Connor may also take the number 10 shirt for the Nov. 7 test against Scotland at Murrayfield.

O'Connor played off the bench in the 32-23 win over Japan in Oita last Saturday and in back-to-back victories over Argentina.
