Yes, it's sad the way have slipped down the pecking order. We are much better at rugby than football, but it's hardly great.

This.

So far from what I’ve seen, they look the most fittest team in the competition.

I was beginning to think that Japan had the game to beat the bigger teams but when you see them let Scotland score a try against the run of play you can see they have weaknesses after all and this could be their cup final. They won’t have it so easy against the likes of NZ.

another try oooooooh :greengrin

Japan might just be tiring here.


Get in there :greengrin

TRY

It’s the hope that kills you...

Try Scotland!

28-19

Well, well, well.....

The spirit of Twickenham lives!

Hang on a minute....

28-21

15 needed.

Twickenham deja vu here

Why do they do this to us :boo hoo:

Clever game management is essential now. Try to deny Japan their running game and make it attritional with the big forwards.

i wish they would at least knock-on every so often

That big Nakagima is a mountain of a man who coould easily be sumo wrestler. Immense.

Fantastic defending by Scotland there

great turnover ritchie

I think with them getting the 4 try bonus point we're screwed.

20 yard forward pass, what a ****** mess of a pass fgs

That's garbage.

Handling error again as we get into their 22. Congratulations Japan: what a great story for them.
