The tacking rule doesn’t apply to the top two tiers of RU but there may be up and coming talent at semi-pro and amateur level. It could be an opportunity to grow our amateur game if there are amateur RL clubs to move to.
There was something on Midlands’ News yesterday about the Staffordshire RU challenging the rule change. A junior RU coach also expressed concern about losing young players and more injuries from knees and boots. Some women players expressed similar concerns.
