I think the guy is an incredible athlete and a legend of the game... but the guy needs to retire. He's had to many knocks the the head and gets knocked out way to easily. Its time doctors stepped in, did the right thing and gave him the advice he needs and thats that he should stop playing. Its honestly terrifying watching him play, if it continues i honestly fear one day, he may not get up.
Love this guy. Especially as a Welshman but I think that even though he's been inconsistent he's still our starting winger. What I'm about to say may be controversial..... I think he should retire. Although he's not had a knock to the head until recently, 6 (I think that's the number) concussions is far too many. He needs to think of his long term health
@@coconuttree5045 exactly. He's a Welsh hero and a great lion find tell me 1 human being who would ask him to put his rugby ability before his health and you would have found me a disgusting human being. Its a terrible situation for him and from a selfish point of view for the Welsh team and fans but if prefer him to live his life than to potentially have it ended on the field
Rhys Jones I agree. Since the concussion business happened he has been a shadow of himself and who blames him! Getting concussed is fucked and is going to majorly influence the way you play the game. I hope he gets to his best, because my memories as an Englishman of him of that 2013 lions tour are incredible. He is a hero!
Wasn't that he peaked to early just the fact that he's had 5 knockout concussions atleast in the past 5 seasons has affected his game, shame really because he has the power, determination, fitness, and other attributes to have been the best winger of all time.
Pre-2016 North was an absolute beast. Was on-track to be one of the best wingers ever in the game, but the guy's clearly had too many knocks to the head, and is barely recognisable as the same player anymore. The sad thing is, this guy should be in this prime right now and still tearing it up, not hit his peak when he was 22/23.
He puts his body on the line in every game even if he is inconsistent in other areas what more can you ask from a player he doesn’t deserve the KOs he has had
Everyone saying he "needs to retire" maybe try considering that he is constantly taking advice from some of the most qualified health professionals in the sport. I think they and him are better equipped to make the decision than you.
@@benjaminmarchant5862 It was rumoured that doctors told him to retire a couple of years back. The reality is he probably spoke to a variety of doctors who advised him, and you can only hope that he is sensible and takes the advice of the doctor/doctors he trusts most
Benjamin Marchant he said himself that he’s only ever played when he’s felt in a good position to play based on what the medics around him have said. He said he’s never taken the field when he’s not felt 100%
Too much hate being aimed at him, still an incredible athlete and a beast just unlucky on so many occasions with injury, yeah he needs to find his hunger again like he used to have but not really easy to find under the amount of pressure he’s under from people
LOVE George North. Guess I agree but would be a shame if he had to retire from rugby, I hope to see him soon when Ospeys play again, would like to see him play live before he retires completely(if he does) just to say I have seen him...... I am English but support all rugby teams as love the game.
Come on George bounce bak show everyone u still got it 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
Unbelievable player at his best I think the thing that everyone always over look about this guy is how absolutely absurd his footwork was for a man of his freakish size hopelfully he can make it to 100 caps before he has to retire
All these toys talking of concussion... He will stop when he wants to stop ..... JPR Williams and others I dare not mention endured way more than 6 concussions .... you know the crack when you step on the pitch, rugby is getting too soft !!! The guy is an awesome player, and he would be one of the first names on a Welsh team sheet for me .... Boxers should never fight again after being knocked out!!
So good to watch. I’ll never forget his Lions try
The Guy is a Legend if he has one bad game out of nearly 100 test caps for Wales 🏴 then he can be forgiven in my eyes Da Iawn George
so relieved he wasn't seriously injured by that reckless tackle at Twickenham at the weekend. Class act !
From a Springbok fan most wingers from the UK are actualy very good. I watched a few his highlights and I like him.
Nobody, absolutely nobody:...

Yeap, and same goes for Biggar. Shocking that your federation let him play against France.
The last one may be one too many I fear.
Sensational Player.
@@scottdittmer5597 i it does happen tho
Sad but true man...
I’m an English fan and I can say that George North is an outstanding player
not easy to find a player with that size, power, speed and step, one of wales greatest ever wingers imo
God, i love this guy 😊❤ he was really good on his prime 💪💪

Rhys Jones yes well said but it is like the same thing that happened to Avicii some people just forcing him to do things against what is good for him
@@rhysjones3867 opposite of what an American would say about their stars!
such a powerful runner
Love watching North in top form but he needs a break from wales to find that form and fuel his hunger again
SLYcHoRd one of the best players in the world when he’s on form- completely agree. Top man and top athlete
We have lost our old George
He's been on fire the last few months, let's hope he takes it in to the six nations
He peaked way too early, now a shadow of what he used to be.
Wasn't that he peaked to early just the fact that he's had 5 knockout concussions atleast in the past 5 seasons has affected his game, shame really because he has the power, determination, fitness, and other attributes to have been the best winger of all time.
Still a class player
Fucking shut up you tool😂
LOL, and now he just won another 6Nations Championship. What a difference a year makes.

Didnt the doctors also tell him to considering retiring, i could be wrong but that was my understanding

First!!! Love this

My favourite welsh player

Epic tribute. I hope George gets his hands on the ball more this weekend (Wales needs more possession for that, though).
For a big man he is super agile.
I once saw him in a cafe in Paris. He’s a really nice guy and would never be mean to his fans. Unlike the selfishness of footballers
Those injuries,including head knocks are a career killer really.
warrior
I think he is not what he was anymore
He needs to get that hunger back again
10年くらい前にニコ動で見たけど、やっぱり化けたか。
Tremendous video for to watch on St David's Day :-)
Cool vid! Defos a champ!!
Come on George bounce bak show everyone u still got it 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
Would be great to see him playing good rugby again.
Wonder if it's because of concussions, he is not the player he used to be.
He’s just a tank with a rocket engine
And a step and great hands. Did you even watch the video?
It's an excelent player
What a video!!!
Don't know what's happening to him and its quite sadenning to see this in comparison to his performances in the past year including this six nations
Nice vidéo !!
Hope he is doing well, doesnt deserve all this KOs
Unbelievable player at his best I think the thing that everyone always over look about this guy is how absolutely absurd his footwork was for a man of his freakish size hopelfully he can make it to 100 caps before he has to retire
Louis Rees-Zammit has joined the chat*
Has got a long way to go
2013/14 George North was different gravy
After subsequent knocks to the head thought he'd be retiring young. Proved me wrong though. Still a good option for 13 imo.
Poor boy knocked out a tournament for a concussion again...
James Lefley he could be fit for the next game
@@AndrewDavidForde hope so! Would really he great if Liam Williams can play too!
Concerned about the number of concussions he's had but
Just a shame he keeps tackling with his head lol
Nobody, absolutely nobody:...

@@tomakins7196 banter
Pivack needs to drop him to the reserves
Reserves?
Fofana’s try vs england 6 nations
Shame he's gotten a little shit recently but hopefully he'll bounce back
The only bad thing about this sport is injuries.
Hi
Think people forget how good he used to be. Probably needs some time away somewhere to reinvent himself
Don't rate him tbh. All these are old clips. Don't think he's good defensively.
Archie Brown he probably doesn’t think you’re good defensively either tbh
George north is better than Jordan larmour
All these toys talking of concussion... He will stop when he wants to stop ..... JPR Williams and others I dare not mention endured way more than 6 concussions .... you know the crack when you step on the pitch, rugby is getting too soft !!!
The guy is an awesome player, and he would be one of the first names on a Welsh team sheet for me .... Boxers should never fight again after being knocked out!!
