Matt Giteau - The Little Magician

Matt Giteau was a mercurial rugby player. He was versatile and could play 9, 10 and 13, but it was probably at inside centre that he made his greatest impact.
He was highly skillful, could cut opposition defenses to pieces and could read the game well.
Here are some of his greatest tries.
Enjoy and thanks for watching!

you know its the 2003 RWC when nearly every Wallaby is rocking the fingerless gloves

As a 14 year old back then I even bought a pair thinking it would be cool

We all want to be a little like BOD 😅

That second try in the video against the Romanians, there's the voice of the late David Fordham, my favourite Aussie rugby commentator- especially on Channel 10 during those early 90s Bob Dwyer years here in Australia. It was great to hear him again after so many years in RWC 2003. Rest in peace, Fordo.

I've always loved Giteau! Legend!!!

[@joshkarena3058]

Matt Giteau would have been in my 1st XV back then any day.

9:00 the barbarians team, made up of absolute legends. Would've been fun to have been in that team for sure

That Barbarians backline was a joke 😂

[@wanthedream98]

He must’ve hated the springboks a lot 😂 scored plenty of great tries against them

[@steventheron1165]

Yes he did. I hated the guy along with that power Wallabies side but he was simply a brilliant player!
