The wait is reportedly over as Quade Cooper is set to make his return to the Wallabies against the Springboks.
The Wallabies will name their squad today with Cooper set to be named at flyhalf for Sunday’s clash.
The 33-year-old was initially brought into the squad as injury cover, with travel restrictions limiting replacements with James O’Connor still recovering from a groin injury.
Speaking to media last week, Cooper admitted he had little expectation about whether he would play or not, looking to soak up vital knowledge before heading back to Japan.
Former Wallaby Lote Tuqiri backed calls for Cooper to start, believing it will assist in the development of Noah Lolesio following a tough series against the All Blacks.
Australia will face South Africa at 10.05pm this Sunday.
