Tim Horan lends his support to dropped Wallabies fly-half Matt Giteau in The Courier Mail.
"Some Wallabies may have played themselves out of a World Cup spot last weekend against Samoa, but Matt Giteau certainly wasn't one of them.
There's been plenty of speculation about Giteau's World Cup future after being left out of the Wallabies' 22-man squad to play South Africa this week.
For a number of reasons I would not only have selected him in this weekend's 22, but I would have him on the plane to New Zealand as well.
Giteau is a talented player who can cover three spots in the Wallabies: five-eighth, centre and halfback.
Robbie Deans has gone with a five forwards-two backs bench to play the Springboks and if you are carrying only two back reserves, they need to be as versatile as possible."
