McKenzie said Toomua's Super Rugby form was too good to ignore.
"It's pretty much performance oriented," McKenzie said of Toomua's selection ahead of Cooper.
"He's played good football all year. He's the best man for us to start the game. Quade's disappointed, every player I spoke to was.
"That's the way it is - they'll get another chance. There's other opportunities to contribute."
