Red card ? Really? I don't think so,shouldn't different statures and split second decision making/ reaction time be taken into account?

We're not far away from rugby becoming a non contact sport. 🙄
As clear a red card as you’ll see. He made no attempt to get low and was upright in the tackle. Being bigger doesn’t excuse you from getting yourself into a proper tackling position.

Players need to learn to tackle properly and not always try to go for the dominant tackle. They used to teach us to tackle low, even big players can get low if they want to.

As for the “We're not far away from rugby becoming a non contact sport.” Don’t be ridiculous, protecting players heads from injury and trying to get players to tackle properly like they used to is not taking away contact, it’s just being sensible.
