4:55 once happened to me i got knock outed but i still played full match somehow, the only thing i remeber was when my coach wanted to change me but i didnt agree for that. I didnt know where i was

All these tackles are no illegal in the NFL

How often it’s the smaller players putting in the bag tackles!

International board forbids high tackle in which heads can collide because of the possible injuries and concussions. As a former 72 kilos rugby player I never got so hurt at my head as when I tackled low in the legs. Not everytime the tackle is so clean as you show: knees can impact your head and hurt you much more than colliding with opponent's head; head on wrong side can cause serious injuries to your neck and if the ball carrier gains just one meter after the tackle you get exposed with your head to his feet and stand on the wrong side of the ruck (I played in the "stamping" era...). This is not to criticize your video: great job, low tackles are the best to stop heavyer players. Just to say that International board rule has only caused a bunch of non rugbish red cards in this RWC, not protecting any athletes in any way.

Here because of the hip drop controversy in the nfl

You just need to look at Joost vs Lomu 95 World Cup.

I was schooled in wales in the 1980s. This was the technique we were taught to tackle with. Also, we were told to run at gaps, with a support runner on our shoulder and pop the ball to him as you take the tackle. Why has rugby become so complicated and dreary? Oh and BTW, the two teachers that taught us also developed 3 future British Lions out of that school, Neil Jenkins, Gethin Jenkins and Michael Owen.

Can’t run without a head either

Remember being lacked by a small kid in PE, got his hand behind my knees and I was just amazed at the fact I just couldn't move at all, he completely stopped me.

Just watching South Africa v Scotland. The SA rush defence was often offside. The SA players did not stay in front of the ball. The players went to where the ball is going to go.

Head injuries will go up 100% and no will accept responsibility

I recently learned a valuable tackling lesson the hard way. I had to make a head on open field tackle on a bigger player. I was tired and failed to close the space before he picked up speed. I knew I had to go low but I came in with my feet to far forward tried to bend at the waist instead of at the knees resulting in a torn hamstring during the tackle. I wanted to share my lesson. when going low adjust your target height at the knees and never bend over excessively at the waist. make sure your feet are well behind your ass so you are not putting tension on your hamstrings. quads should be driving.

And "get your head out of the way". Anyone remember Jappie Mulder's tackle on Jonah Lomu in 1995.....not quite perfect - head in the way a bit - but so good it surprised and annoyed Lomu.

Those chop tackles should be illegal because rugby’s all about the tackler ensuring the safety of the ball carrier... there is no control over what happens after the chop... no wrap, no guiding down... nothing - absolutely no control whatsoever!

Great upload

At Ngati Toa School (NZ) we tackled at the ankles. Go low, head to one side, grab ankles, pull them together, and charge like a maniac. (Works very well in pool halls too).

Sadly, the rules favour the defence in the open play maul.

All of this works in a world without lomu 😅😂 keep up the amazing videos 😊

So many vids celebrate big hits where the technique is terrible and dangerous, such as the tackler using their head to spear the attacking player. They are a terrible example. This is so much better.

Absolutely brilliant, not enough videos (that I can find) showing and explaining attacking depth to this quality, absolutely amazing work!

Really good video. Can see the effort you put in to find some smart lineouts

Good tacking video - interesting how many good tackles shown by Argentina

This is even more important today. All these arm chair fans saying lowering the tackle height will ruin rugby. Yeah just look at how soft this is making the game.

Did for years I've been saying this size is nothing but a concept, I relish on big guys running at me, it's what makes my weekend

I have never been over 10 stone and at 38 take out big men ever weekend, technique is key

Yep -i think we will see a return of open play mauls given how organized D 's now are

basically a tacke to the lower hip, thank you.

Beautiful 👌

John Kirwan, Inga Tuigamala, Corey Jane, Craig Innes, Dan Carter had epic fend game

Your videos are gold. Learnings lots. Keep it up

Any thoughts on when to pick and go vs pass? When you're not a scrum half.

Great points - interesting to try and apply in a live game. Also good to see some women's rugby

Box kicks 😂😂 only in yawnion. Imagine attempting this in league. Shows the standard of union 😂😂

Might try this on Saturday

Try that on Julian savea 😂

..works everytime..except on a guy called jonah..

2:28 after reading that then seeing a waratahs kit I instantly knew, hooper turnover

7:10 hang on, that's shepherding

Can’t run without a head Take their heads off

Teach players when going low from the side to “put your head on the pillow” ; namely the bum cheeks. That teaching will prevent concussions by the head being out of the way of legs/knees and hips.

Japanese No. 6 against blue Scrum Half: Hardly a fair contest. Regardless of technique, the defence was caught of guard. There is theory and then there is having the balls to complete that kind of tackle on someone twice your weight. Good effort I say.

I did Judo and Gymnastics as a kid, and I swear it's the best grounding for rugby tackling ever. You get low and hit hard. Bosh.

Sam Warburtons on Manu tuilagi at Twickenham was absolutely textbook!!

When I was a kid every coach said “can’t run without their legs”

There is no such thing as a "low tackle": there is only "the tackle". Anything else is just "contact"

Awesome tips from New Zealand but one of the best ball carrier is Rene Ranger legend 😎😎😎
