      As a Welshman I can’t wait to see him play France at 13. We never gave him the ball enough when he was on the wing but now he gets it a lot. Never seems to have a bad game vs France. He is often aided by french mistakes but still have played well a lot of those games

    @dekenba6482 3 роки тому +4

    It makes you wonder how Wales would have done without George North, he's been absolutely central to their success over the last decade.
    I'd hate to play against him, you wouldn't know if he was going to skin you on the outside or just run right through you.
    What's remarkable is that he played wing in a Wales team that didn't score a great many tries under Gatland - just enough to get in the lead, then defend like crazy!
    Now he's move infield to centre, where he'll receive more passes, and playing under Pivac - who values a wider game, running game - added to his immense experience, George may end up scoring tries at a greater rate than at any other time. He'll pass Shane's record at some point, and if he plays until his mid thirties - which is possible as he's playing in Wales, and his gametime is carefully managed - he could end up with more caps than AWJ and tries knocking three figures.

    the way he runs is like old pathe film footage of athletes from days of old. Michael Johnson did it pretty good on the track. cadence didn't look super fast but the power underneath was the thing. once into his stride he certainly took some stopping. BOD was fast but it was angles. Jonathon Davies is another with speed and power but very effective, Davies best of the 2.
