MELBOURNE (Reuters) -Marika Koroibete says his time in Wallabies gold is over after 63 tests and 20 tries for Australia as coach Joe Schmidt moves on with other wingers.

The Japan-based 33-year-old, who won the John Eales Medal twice as Australia's best test player, was in Schmidt's Rugby Championship squad last year but opted out of the season-ending tour of Europe and has been overlooked since.
