You want him to go in low on a prop running the ball back from a KICK OFF? Nobody is going to go for the legs in that situation, because if you go for the legs in that situation you're going to collect a knee or a hip and you're the one who ends up sleeping or with 20 stitches

There's very good reason that you don't see head-on tackling at the waist or below in the game very often, it's because it's effing stupid and coaches don't coach it. It's pretty much unheard of to tackle at the waist or below in a 1 on 1 kick-return scenario like that

Both players were at fault. Mika had his head on the wrong side of Amor, it was a technically bad effort. But equally Amor is a forward, a prop has no business taking the ball up from the kick off and trying a pirouette.

Accidents happen. You can't just dish out punishments whenever someone has an unfortunate injury. If Amor wasn't cut and got to his feet to play the ball not a single person here would have anything to say about the tackle. Head clashes are a fairly regular occurrence in the game, especially when people get wrong footed

But it wasn't a high tackle was it? It was an accidental clash of heads... www.therfl.co.uk/the-rfl/disciplinary/item?4129 The kind that we (unfortunately) see quite frequently. That don't normally result in penalties. I was only half watching the Bradford vs Cas game but did I see Jamie Langley getting cleaned up after a head clash? Was there a penalty given for that?

Semantics aside, it just shows how tough these guys are, and I for one thank each and every player who puts their body on the line every week no matter which club they play for, or in which league.
