One of the things I always like to stress to Americans is that a lot of tackles in Rugby are done with proper technique, mainly because the lack of protection means you need to have good technique or you're losing teeth, breaking bones etc. The use of pads and helmets in the NFL has actually reduced the technique level of many players tackling, which leads to just throwing your body in like a missile at the guy. This is why the NFL has more concussions in general than most Rugby competitions.

As a French, i can say that in rugby schools for kids (both boys and girls), they don't practice tackles because of danger. But they learn how to fall, how to resist to stay their two legs, how to catch the ball from adversaries, and how to enjoy, because, in reality, it's a team fighting sport. In many places all over Europe, in ancient time (i.e. since medieval age), villages "played" game in witch the goal is to put something (typically a big ball) to the church of the opponents. In France it was called "la soule" and it was extremely dangerous with possible deaths (yes, we started it as some kind of war"). So now, it is a little more civilized but still hard, physical and sometime harmful but honestly the rules are evolving to adresse commotional issues. For example, you can't tackle over the shoulders because of the neck, you can't tackle an opponent who is still on his jump. You have to wait his (her) feet are on the ground, and so on. Really, this sport seems very brutal when played by senior men but try to see feminine rugby. As woman don't have the same size, they must find other tricks to win the game. Personally, i enjoy women's game because it's different and very interesting. Have a good day and happy new year.

What North Americans call football was developed from rugby at the colleges and universities of central Canada in the 1860s. You can see the similarities: field lines, running with the ball, lateral or backwards pass, goal posts (in the US they were moved to the back while in Canada they're still in the front).
