[2015 RWC] Pool B: South Africa vs. Japan (19/09/2015)

[sigesige00]

Japan's HC is fielding the best 15. I hope that Japan will not give 5 points for RSA.

UH, this commentator just said "won the race to play X position, over X player...", is that the case for 4, 10, and 15 for South Africa? I wouldn't have thought so, at all...

 

[TommiG88]

Want to see the SA steam roll. Come on rugby.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Kriel to score first 9/1 not bad odds.

Japan win the kit competition.

 

[GoTheNaki]

GOOOO JAPAN, RUN you little bugger... Oop, nvm.

Put £10 on Kriel, quick.

Haha, oh boy... My commentator just said "ball stolen by the New Zealanders". Lmao.

Japan are competing well, but they are going to be soooo tired come the last 20 given how much tackling they'll have to do.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Ohhh Japan are very good ball in hand.

Did well to get the ball out of the scrum as fast as they did.

 

[GoTheNaki]

What the? What's going on here??? Japan make that pass that was a try... But... It's Japan..?

Goooo Japan, woo!

 

[Aristodemus]

Enjoying this. Won't last but nice to see them bringing it to the boks

 

[welshpete]

Is it too early to say....these guys are going to be good at home in 4 years time?? Obviously not as winners, but stepping up to clear 2nd tier??

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Wish Eddie jones wasn't leaving!

Unless it is to England

If Japan win I'm going to have to buy the jersey as it will sell fast IMO, although doubt it will happen.

 

[Tony Manx]

Eddie Jones for England!!!!

Edit.....Fools seldom differ!!!

 

[ratsapprentice]

Fantastic start from Japan - awesome viewing.

In 4 years time, the big serious will be Argentina... But then USA, Canada, maybe Japan...? USA, and Canada are both getting quite good at 7s already.. They're just throwing money at the sport because it's at the Olympics.

Would really like to see Quins/Saxons take some games to Brighton - it's a great stadium.


It's very unfortunate that there are such severe issues behind the scenes and in domestic coaching in Japan.

 

[SelimNiai]

Good start from Japan. Theyre not intimidated at all.

I thought shoulder pads went out of fashion in the 80s
