George Carmont (born 30 June 1978 in Auckland, New Zealand) is a professional rugby league footballer for the Wigan Warriors of the Super League competition. He primarily plays at centre.

The Samoan captain was expected to join either Harlequins or Wigan for the 2008 season with the latter seen as the more likely destination after the London side seemingly agreed a deal to sign David Vaealiki before the centre was confirmed as a new signing for Manly.^[1][2]

On 27 November 2007, it was announced that Carmont had signed a two year deal with European Super League club Wigan Warriors.^[3]

Carmont has been named in the Super League Dream Team for the 2008 season.^[4]

Carmont was selected in the Samoa squad for the 2008 Rugby League World Cup.^[5] He appeared in three matches for Samoa and scored two tries.

He is eligible for the United States national rugby league team through his American Samoan heritage^[6].
