Remarkable rugby tackle.

The most remarkable thing about it is that no one 'accosted' him after the tackle.

Nasty - could have easily been a broken neck scenario. Large ban looming for that me thinks.

Incredible though - the guy just gets up and looks to pass ... and no-one goes berserk - they just get on with the game.

So much for soccer players to learn here ... they get th4e handbags out when someone *falls* over in the middle of the pitch ...

Set aside an hour or so of your life, log onto youtube, type in 'rugby vs football', enjoy!

Not really, in most of the games I played a tackle like that would result in a punch up fairly quickly.

That was a bad one, you can some times forgive a reaction lunging arm if you have been wrong footed.
Not that one though ouch.
