MELBOURNE - One-test Wallabies flyhalf Tane Edmed has signed a two-year deal for the ACT Brumbies in a bid to revive his test career after five seasons with the New South Wales Waratahs.

The 24-year-old made his test debut against Ireland last November but was overlooked for Joe Schmidts Australia squad for the British amp; Irish Lions series, which starts in Brisbane on Saturday.

Edmeds move to Stephen Larkhams Brumbies has long been telegraphed in Australian media following Noah Lolesios decision to leave Canberra for Japan.

Dan McKellars Waratahs missed the Super Rugby playoffs.

Edmed is the latest number 10 to ditch the Sydney team following the loss of Ben Donaldson to Western Force and Will Harrison to Japanese rugby. REUTERS
