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.

Remember to chop your feet to avoid sitting down. Shortening your stride will help keep your feet behind your centre of gravity. It also helps to prevent overcommitting and allowing the carrier side step the tackle too easily.

Sanchez the Argentinian fly half comes up clutch again

Being a big guy (6'3", 280) I have always had difficulty making the low tackles. I usually go high, wrap them up and wrestle them down. If they did get by I always try and grab jersey and if not get them down slow them up enough for help to arrive. This is a fabulous video though and if we ever get back on the pitch I'm going to show the team so we can practice these types of tackles. Making a tackle is great but doing it safely as shown here leads to a longer career!

4:31 A classic grass cutter tackle

The most dangerous mistake you can make with a low/standard tackle is getting your head the wrong side of the body. It’s important to learn to keep your head up, be comfortable using both shoulders and never put your head in front of the attackers striding leg. Great video.

@RugbyGuide

4 жыл бұрын

100% agree! I wish commentators would call this out more in games... sometimes you'll see a winger cross cover and put in a big hit with head in front. If they're not knocked out they often get praised for it. Starting to remind everyone that it's extremely dangerous might get younger players, at least, to really focus on head behind?

In american football they teach to tackle with your head across the hip of the runner, putting your head in the way so that you make a hit and stop yardage and not a wrap up tackle. It led to more concussions for me than I ever admit while playing, and wish our coaches would steal from rugby more than they did.

I played rugby in Australia and we had a Canadian student who joined our team. He had never played rugby Union before only played NFL. We were playing full tackle at training, first tackle he charges in with his head first on the opponents chest went down hard. Everyone including the opposition stopped what they were doing and ran up to him to see if he was alright, looked like it could have crippled him. He was seeing stars but was ok. Once we knew he was ok we told him of to never go in head first but to the side. NFL teach the wrong technique, dangerous.

Great video for a new guy like me that's been trying to get better/safer tackles!

I had forgotten how much I liked to see rugby, thankyou for the great video

for the last question, I can only seem to think of three ways. The first is a phase move, a move which my brother taught me to use against bigger players. The phase move is when you move in to make a tackle with an upright body which directs the attention of the larger player to your chest, the moment you see the fend coming you phase downwards and quickly wrap is legs or clench his waste. The second one is to fly at his legs, this is very unsafe and I do not recommend ever using this. The third is to make sure you bend at the waist, do not sit or you will be off-balance, and hit the chest and slide down to legs.

Great video. One of the issues that I think is under-appreciated is the tackler rolling away. Your example of taking the player low for the fetcher to have a crack at the ball is a very good example but it should be emphasised that the tackling rolling away was very important. These days tacklers seem to be coached to stay in place for about 2 seconds to slow the attacking team's ball which in itself is bad for the game but they get away with it because it is *just* not long enough to be penalised. But if the tackler rolls away quickly, like Bernard Foley did, then you have a really clean path to the ball for the fetcher with no chance of being penalised for the tackler not rolling away.

@RugbyGuide

Excellent point! It's one of the areas of the game I'd like to see cleaned up, but can appreciate it's very difficult to manage so much at the this level, especially when kickers can slot from 50m and you aren't sure if it's deliberate / incidental. I've seen not rolling away penalised too much when the tackler had barely a second to make any move.

You know as an argentinian who played a bit when I was a kid, it was only through the internet I found out tackles more often took place a lot higher than what I was used to

Hi, im a fellow argentine. in pro levels a lot of players tackle by hugging the attacker high so they can't make an offload. Besides it puts the attacker on a difficult position for his teamy in the ruck. If the tackler hugs the attacker without taking him down it can lead to ball retention and a penaltiy in favour of the tacklers team, so it is not a usless tackle at all. But you have to be bigger and stronger than the attacker if you want to try this tackle, otherwise you will be bumped to the floor. Ahora en español: en el rugby profecional muchos tacklean alto (abarazando al atacante) para impedir que este haga on offload (pase la pelota durante el tackle) y además para dejar en el piso en una situación más ventajosa para que tus forwards recuperen la pelota en el ruck. Además abrazando al atacante sin tirarlo al pizo puede terminar en retención de la pelota y en penal a favor del equipo de tackleador. Pero este tackle solo sirve si sos más grandote y fuerte que el rival, de lo contrario te van a tirar de culo al piso. Saludos.

As an U18 year old in Scotland, we played an Argentinean youth touring side (Belgrano A.C. Rugby) in 1991 I think. We were really surprised, and I've always remembered, how low they tackled. It was a completely different style compared to our New Zealand inspired rucking/running style of the Scottish teams at that time. It was a really good tough game.

Great video. The side tackle making sure your head is behind the opponent is how we were first taught to tackle as newbies a mere 40 odd years ago. Hard side impact to the legs or thighs or the slide tackle technique. If you look at these tackles in slow motion then maybe half of them occur when the tackled player doesn't have his feet on the ground - therefore has no chance of staying upright,

Spot on, for me! I think there's too much talk about 'dominant' hits knocking people back (definitely a place for them if you can do them safely). Frustratingly, here in Canada, I hear them called 'positive hits' (like the ones in this video are 'negative'?). Both have positives and negatives, but I think both aims of getting the player down quickly and getting on the front foot, defensively, can be achieved with well executed side tackles and the ball can be challenged, if not stolen, with well coordinated units in front of those tackles. Cheers for the comment!

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.

rule number one- watch where you put your head, rule number 2 hit the soft areas not the hard areas, wrap your arms drive your legs.- the hits will come as your confidence and timing /experience grows..I have seen a 60 kilo schoolboy flanker drive a prop backwards head on tackle- timing technique and confidence, his dickhead coach told him to go low next time- he destroyed the guy- there is a time and tackle for everything.

Tackling 101. If you go between the knees and waist you're going to bring them down. Get your head in the right place and wrap your arms around their legs.It was how I was taught in the '80's and '90's. However I feel the proposed laws on the tackle are might cause a lot of problems with the modern players techniques. They aren't used to having tackle this way. I prefer the idea of between knee and chest height.

He tried the necessary options available to him. It is a reckless ball carrier. Most professionals avoid frontal contact like this at all cost because it serves little purpose. Decreases their chances of gaining ground, breaking tackles, quick way to gain injury/concussion & get the ball stripped both in hands and on ground.
