Lee Thomas crunching hit on Will Skinner

With all the focus on match highlights in recent times, we tend to neglect an aspect of rugby that we know many of you love to watch over and over again – the big hit.

While there’s been many this year, we haven’t featured them all here as individual clips, but material for our next compilation vid is building up nicely.

In fact there’s more than enough hits now, there’s just a lack of time. But we’re working on it, and Try Savers & Rib Breakers 11 should be on the way within the next few months.

A tackle that I’ve received a number of requests for is this bone-crunching hit from Sale’s Lee Thomas on Harlequins’ Will Skinner in their recent meeting at The Stoop.

It was a great game of rugby, and if you haven’t caught the highlights yet, be sure to check them out in the related links below, as both sides scored a few great tries.

This hit by Sale centre, Thomas, rocked Skinner to the point that he needed to take a few minutes to recover from a serious case of having the wind knocked out of him. To his credit, that’s all it was, and he got up shortly afterwards and soldiered on.

A cracking hit, from a cracking game of rugby. Enjoy.
