Message: [QUOTE="Midean, post: 3263955, member: 10185"] The 17% contact with the head is the key element, and you can bet your house that the 4% injury was largely made up of the head shots, which are illegal no matter the style of the tackle. This is the thing Pete, the NRL banned the tackle based on its potential for injury, nothing more. I understand their reasoning behind it, but make no mistake, it was not banned because it was causing a slew of injuries as is outline in that article you linked. It specifically outlines recommendations based on the fact players were on average getting bigger. [/QUOTE]
