TACKLING DEBATE SPECIAL - World Rugby's Dr Ross Tucker vs Amateur Rugby Player & Coach Jonathan Beardmore

Today we're delighted to facilitate a debate on the hottest topic in world rugby currently in the 'Tackle Height' saga between World Rugby's very own Dr Ross Tucker and an incredibly outspoken opposition voice representing the amateur game in Jonathan Beardmore. Dr Ross Tucker is a science and research consultant for World Rugby, whereby he supports all strategic decisions that involve player welfare (so injury, concussion, player health), High Performance (performance analysis, performance audits) and Law (law change and monitoring) and hence has played a large part in introducing these coming changes. Jonathan Beardmore is a podcast host and a representative of the amateur game in the press and is an outspoken critic of these proposed changes to the game. Sit back and enjoy. Hosted on Acast.
