So as long as you get the ball first you can do what you like

Remember huckerby getting sent off just before he left. got the ball, went in high, over the ball onto the guy's shin nearly snapped him clean in half and got sent off for it.

Also it was a high tackle, tackle above waist height is a high tackle.
