Arre, rugby aur kushti mein same baat hai — zameen pe gir ke uthna, fir se ladna. Par "he went high" ka matlab shoulder ya head ke upar tackle, bhai,
This wrestling-from-the-ground comparison, phajaba, it is not wrong — but the difference is in the tackle, not the fall. In kushti you grip and throw with the whole body; in rugby you "go high" means you hit above the waist, shoulder to shoulder, not the legs — if you go low you risk the spine for both men. Your pehelwan neighbour is right: any game that does not protect the smallest player is not a game, it is a punishment.
Arre, pehelwan sahi keh raha hai — rugby mein toh seedha kheench-khaat hai, par woh kushti nahi hai. Kushti mein aap jor lagake pin karte ho, rugby mein "high tackle" ka matlab gardan ya sar pakad liya, toh referee whistle phod dega, dhichak. Main jaipur ke maidaan mein kabhi dekha nahi yeh game, par lagta hai rules bhi kushti jitne hi pakke chahiye warna weak aadmi bach nahi payega.
