Re: Tackle of the championship?
I beg to differ lostinwales - That tackle by Hibbard resonated throughout the stadium and throughout both teams, it was symbolic and made a statement that lasted for the rest of the game, in essence it said, "run at us as hard as you can, you're going backwards and down" and so they did - It was hugely symbolic and IMO we never saw Marler after that and there was a look of fear and uncertainty from the men in white who were glad to hear the final whistle
Conversley the tip tackle made no difference in the end

From an Irish perspective BoD made a super wrap up tackle of a Welsh 2nd row 5 metres from our try line in the 1st match and Warburton chopped SoB down when he was on the rampage in the same game.

Hogg on Debaty, the big fella on the hoof from the 22, brushed everyone else off, made it to 10m from the line, Hogg last man standing, no room for mistakes
