What tackle? There was no attempt to wrap

I reckon it might have something to do with the shoulder into the head and no attempt to make a proper tackle.....what a hit

twinytwo

so this would be classed as a shoulder barge?

yup, it was a shoulder charge. Pretty nasty too. Chabal is no weed and he was sent flying

Shoulder charge and possibly a late tackle

he tends to get targeted a lot does chabal, thinking of every time munster play sale (o connell / o callaghan for example). It must give the opposing team a big phyciological boost to see such a big man getting hammered.

Well, "Hammer the Hammer" as they say!

Yeah it was a bad one. No arms, hit him with the shoulder.

It was a shoulder charge and a pretty good one tbh.
He connected straight to the chest area and did no serious damage,just knocked the wind out of him.

Warrants a yellow.

Chabel used to be a hard man, till Munster sorted him out, now he goes down on the sligthest touches :P.


OP that hit was illegal as he made not attempt to wrap up. If you want to see a legal hard hit on Chabal see
