Get the RFU to reverse new tackle height laws

The Issue

After the baffling new law that came out on 19th of January to reduce tackle height to waist and under for the community sector. This needs to be reduced before rugby is lost to a stupid rule.

Which will mean a larger drop off of players, pick and go will be unstoppable, more concussion due to knee contact and the lose of ripping the ball in the tackle, this list could continue for ages.

The championship did a trial with this and had to stop early due to too many concussion.

Sign the petition so this utter bonkers and self sabotaging rule can be scrapped.
