Wales flanker Dan Lydiate puts in an immense performance against France in their Six Nations match in March 2012 at the Millennium Stadium to help Wales to win the Grand Slam. His thumping chopping tackles often led to Welsh turnovers, and stopped French attacks in their tracks.
0:00 - Lydiate jumps on loose ball to secure Wales possession and an attacking opportunity.
0:06 - Lydiate chops down number 8 Imanol Harinordoquy.
0:11 - Lydiate chops down centre Florian Fritz.
0:14 - Lydiate's tackle on flanker Thierry Dusautoir creates a turnover and then a try for Wales and Alex Cuthbert.
0:38 - Lydiate drives full back Clément Poitrenaud backwards.
0:44 - Lydiate chops down impact prop Vincent Debaty.
0:49 - Lydiate chops down wing Wesley Fofana which creates a Welsh penalty and 3 points which full back Leigh Halfpenny got.
0:59 - Lydiate gets across to defend a crossfield kick and drive wing Jean-Marcelin Buttin backwards.
1:11 - Lydiate thumps wing Jean-Marcelin Buttin in the tackle so hard you can hear it and forces Buttin to knock on.
1:26 - Lydiate drives back number 8 Louis Picamoles as he attempts to offload.
1:30 - Lydiate is awarded the Man of the Match award, and was later named Player of the Tournament as well.

Dan broke his neck, so i think the ankle chopping is the best way to go. I'd say its the best technique you can use. But we dont mind a good old shoulder in the solar plex do we 😉

Great performance against the best back row in the world at that time. Superb. Wales had some amazing back towers at that time - Ryan Jones, Justin Tipuric, Sam Warburton, et al

Lydiate has the makings of an all time great. Current Welsh side when at full strength should be able to beat anyone. Other potential all time greats in the side: North and Halfpenny. Weaknesses are the top 2 inches (self belief), an injury to Adam Jones and the half backs are arguably just short on the X factor a truly great Welsh side would like to see. However, if they stay fit then they should have an excellent chance at the next World Cup
