[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 775863, member: 56232"] Very good tackle. The rules on a spear tackle are where a player lifts the legs and the person being tackled goes beyond the horizontal and I believe they also have to land awkwardly (so if a person is able to somehow recover it and put them down safely, I don't think they would get anything more than a warning to be careful). Cases where tripping or momentum causes a player to go beyond the horizontal don't count as that is just physics and not a technical fault of the tackling player. [/QUOTE]
