The definition of power is Speed X Strength OR performing strength movements quickly

Tackling someone hard (strength) and fast (speed) is more effective than just hitting them with stength.

You have to tackle them quickly so that they don't get away and to tackle you need strength.

So you need Power in Rugby!
