All Blacks outside back George Bridge has given up on his international career and signed a three-year deal to play for French champions Montpellier.

The 27-year-old played his 19th test for the All Blacks last November but has not featured in the New Zealand squad this season after losing his starting left wing spot at the Canterbury Crusaders to Leicester Fainga'anuku.
