Wallabies five-eighth Quade Cooper has been found guilty of two offences by an Australian Rugby Union disciplinary panel and hit with two fines totalling $60,000 and a three-match suspension.
After a marathon session of more than four hours at ARU headquarters in North Sydney, the three-man panel fined Cooper $10,000
for comments on social media about an ARU-licensed product on September 22.
The other fine was $50,000 - $20,000 of which is suspended for two years - for his comments on social media and in the mainstream media.
Cooper was also banned for three matches, suspended for two years.
The ban potentially covers Super Rugby and Test matches.
