A video showing Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus teaching Andre Esterhuizen a 'new tackling' technique has gotten the thumbs up from fans.

The video is in response to England's Owen Farrell, who made a controversial tackle on Esterhuizen.

In the one-minute clip, Erasmus is seen instructing Esterhuizen to tackle higher, the same way Farrell did in the match between England and the Springboks.

England won 12-11.

Twitter, of course, was in full approval.
