World Rugby's chief medical officer : Rules may have to change to reduce concussions.

the tackle would be the most likely focus of any changes.

Wales stun England 28-25 in Rugby World Cup thriller !!
England could have snatched a draw at the death, but captain Chris Robshaw opted to kick to the corner
rather than take the difficult pot at the posts :
and when Wales pushed the subsequent maul into touch the chance had gone.

England , Wales, Scotland and Ireland .
and the Venue was the UK :-[
LONDON — The final whistle blew. The home team’s shoulders sagged. England, inventor of the game of rugby in the 19th century,
had been ousted from the sport’s World Cup, failing for the first time to survive the preliminary sparring in a contest it was hosting.
Oddly, though, much of the nation did not mourn. Its attention was elsewhere. >
That prize went to a BBC television competition called “The Great British Bake Off,†staged in a large white tent,
whose winner turned out to be a 30-year-old Muslim descendant of Bangladeshi immigrants named Nadiya Jamir Hussain.
