"Here’s a link to the press release for anyone interested. https://www.englandrugby.com/news/article/rfu-council-approves-lowering-of-the-tackle-height-across-community-rugby-in-england-2023" I did see that… I don’t agree.. I think it’s a case of teaching people from a young age to tackle properly! They overcompensated with the tackle in air rules and now they are overcompensating with high tackle rules The other thing is if they are going to card people if the person being tackled stoops or slips and they are not going to call that mitigation which they should then no one has a clue | |||

"The rfu have effectively killed rugby Union this week with new laws from July this year. Unless you’re only interested in the elite game. " Seems to me the RFU feels like it has to do something to combat the negative press rugby is getting, to encourage people to continue competing at an amateur level. However, they’ve not shown their workings here. Similar things have been trialled before, and the number of concessions went through the roof. Of equal concern is the huge number of head injuries that weren’t concussive. Extremely low tackles increase the risk of contact with fast-moving knees. Unless I’ve missed some detail, this won’t improve things, and could potentially increase injuries. If was these kinds of injuries that led to the advert of league all those years ago. We can’t de-risk everything. So, in short: bad for the spectacle of union, and more dangerous for the players. Madness. | |||

I am guessing these are more concussions in rugby via poor tackling technique than head collisions (I have screamed put your head on the other side in more than one pub!) lowering the tackle zone isn’t helping that!

And thay are saying if they pay all players then the rule dose not count so don't no how the RFU is going to introduced this. But your right this new law posable could back fire with knee or boot to head or face. Below arm pit makes more sense! But I was always taught to aim for hips and slide down. Problem is also guys how play are getting bigger and fitter and there for faster. All adding to risk.. | |||

"In fact… don’t get me started about the way they clear out the ruck… I am going to go grumpy old man!!! You have got me in 6n mode 2 weeks early!! "If we got rid of the offside line at the tackle, a ghastly modern innovation, this wouldn't be so much of an issue; there'd be no point flying through the gate if someone could just step across and pick it up. In fact, every law change designed to make the came faster and more open, reduce the importance of rucks and maul and generally make the game more appealing to people who don't like rugby could be binned and have a better effect of concussions. | |||

Did the offside line at the tackle come in after that game is what I'm asking | |||

" Problem is also guys how play are getting bigger and fitter and there for faster. All adding to risk.." Professional players are too big and fast to tackle safely above the waist, so Old Corinthians 4th XV, where anyone described as big will certainly not be fast and the winger's nicknamed Noodle, must be prevented from tackling above the waist while the pros continue to do so... | |||

"Yes and no. Yes they did exploit the laws, but not exactly like that. By not entering what England expected to be rucks, they stopped a ruck from forming as you need at lest one player from each side. Therefore there was no ruck offside line formed and do when the England automata formed a caterpillar and moved the ball from the tackle site, the Italians moved up alongside it. The offside at a tackle was introduced about 15 years ago; the need PD to "enter through the gate" a few seasons later. Back in the day, you couldn't be offside until a ruck was formed. It's the fact that players can only come in to contest for a tackled ball through a narrow channel that makes running into it as fast as you can to clear it out an effective tactic." Thanks for the explanation mate | |||
