Fitting that unwieldy girth (5)

I believe the answer is:

right

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fitting' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'unwieldy girth' is the wordplay.
'girth' anagrams to 'RIGHT'.
But, I'm not clear how this is indicated.

'that' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for right that I've seen before include "The hand to the east when facing north" , "Equitable" , "correctly" , "Morally good; rectify" , "It's what you deserve" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
