[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 985457, member: 13739"] I always remember the 2012 Wales v Ireland game, and the JD2 try. North in off his wing, stands up D'Arcy and takes him on the outside like he's not even there, bounces off Mcfadden, again like he's not even there, then slips a perfect ball out the back door to Fox. There's been more impressive individual bits of skill from players, but not many have the ability to combine the agility, pace, power and skill he did in those 5 seconds. Sure, thay was 8 years ago, a lot has changed in that time. He was at his very best at the time. However the way I see it is that when he gets involved he still has huge impacts on games. He still has the pace, the power and the agility, but he's too quiet too often. If Pivac feels that he can get North involved in games more often and get the best out of him again, then I can understand his selection. Here's hoping that a change of coach and tactics sees a return to the North of old! [/QUOTE]
