Former Wallaby winger Clyde Rathbone will make his return to rugby with the Brumbies tonight in a Super Rugby trial match against the Western Force.

The former Test winger has insisted that he will be ready to face the Reds on February 16th if he is selected in the season opening match.

Rathbone made his first appearance in a Brumbies shirt since he returned to rugby in an opposed session last week.

The South African born winger retired from playing rugby three years ago due to an injury but battled with depression and has now turned his life around.

Meanwhile, the 2013 Super Rugby season starts on the 15th of next month.
