When Matt Giteau last played a Super 14 game in Canberra, he spearheaded Western Force to an upset win against the Brumbies.
That was a year ago.
The Brumbies will now be looking for another brilliant performance when Giteau makes his much-awaited return to Canberra Stadium against the Lions.
After missing the season-opener against the Force in Perth with a quadriceps injury, Giteau regained fitness and form during the Brumbies' tour of South Africa, which yielded a loss to the Bulls and a win against the Stormers.
If Giteau can reproduce his best form against the Lions, he will help the Brumbies beat a danger team.
"Matt was tremendous that night (for the Force) and he has been good for us to date, too," Brumbies coach Andy Friend said.......

Pretty sure we were at this game and the reason the Force triumphed was because of Shep's tries. Giteau's kicking was woeful that night, so not quite sure how he "spearheaded" the win!
Laugh and the world laughs with you.......
......cry and you'll weaken your beer
Dear Inclined to Forget –
Two of Sheps tries were set up by Giteau...
Now back to Peks wedding TWF fans… Congrats and all the best Pek from Muddie

How cool... I've waited 3 years for Giteau to back into a Brumbies jersey....
GO the Ponies....![]()

Really? He's already played two matches in 2010 Brumbies gear. Thought you would have seen the matches. ............hang on you don't mean you personally have waited to actually see him? To actually be at the stadium?
Just in case here's the directions.In case you have forgotten the way.

With Gits as their spearhead they'll fall over the line at the death.
Bonus point for the Lions this week

Brumbies won but I must say it was a poor performance by the so called best team in Australia.
And the commentating made me sick!!!!!!!!!
