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 Schmidt's Australia squad for the British & Irish Lions series, which starts in Brisbane on Saturday.

Edmed's move to Stephen Larkham's Brumbies has long been telegraphed in Australian media following Noah Lolesio's decision to leave Canberra for Japan.

Dan McKellar's 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.
