SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia winger Joe Tomane confirmed on Tuesday that he will be leaving the ACT Brumbies for French club Montpellier at the end of the season, robbing the Wallabies of one of their best finishers.

Tomane has played 17 tests since making the switch from rugby league in 2012 and will not be eligible for international rugby under Australia's "Giteau Rule", which demands overseas-based players have at least 60 caps.
