The Wales rugby international enjoyed a 14-year career which began with two tries against South Africa back in 2010.
George North has announced Wales' final Six Nations match against Italy on Saturday will be his last international rugby game. The 31-year-old centre says it feels like the 'right time to step away' after a 14-year career. North will play his 121st match for Wales against Italy after he was recalled to the team as Warren Gatland's side aim to avoid finishing bottom of the Six Nations table. He wrote on X: 'After 14 years it feels like now is the right time to step away.
Through a 14-year career, he has scored 47 tries and toured twice with the British and Irish Lions, first in Australia in 2013, then in New Zealand four years later. Wales men's head coach Warren Gatland paid tribute to North's 'incredible career'. He said: 'George has contributed hugely to Welsh rugby, in an incredible career starting as an 18-year-old. 'The way that he burst onto the scene. I can remember seeing him play and thinking we need to cap this kid.
