In today's Times' Guide to the RWC, Sir Ian McGeechan discusses 5 tactical plays. When discussing the 'Leg Tackle' the text states: "The laws at the breakdown were recently changed so that a defender who has tackled the ball-carrier can keep his hands on the ball even when the ruck has formed rather than having to release the ball and attack from his own side of the ruck. He still has to to get on his feet, but by staying low and holding on to the ball, he can gain possession"
