Tackling isn't a special gift that only really good players have. The thing with Brown and Bailey is that they tackle without confidence. And from what i've seen, they go in too high and get run over the top of or get fended away. They just need to have a long lesson with Andrew Johns and learn how to go low and use the ball-runner's momentum to bring them to the ground.

Tackling is largely instinctive. It can't really be taught like that.

Tackling is largely about confidence and having that desire to "rip-in" against the opposition.

Anyone who is tackle shy simply is scared of being hurt.
