This might be immature, but we love it.
If you were to put together a rugby magazine in the UK, chances are you might call it something like “Try” or “Scrum” or “Tackle.” Whoever set up France’s latest rugby publication used exactly that kind of rationale.
Unfortunately for them, the French word for tackle is guaranteed to get more than a snigger out of anyone who speaks English. Don’t believe us? Take a look.

Did you snigger? Don’t lie.
