[QUOTE="james5000, post: 962216, member: 53353"] Thats very disrespectful to Japan If Japan had played us as many times as the Irish have they would probably have beaten us at least 3x At home, as proud as you can imagine. Japan will be tough for anyone. Obviously miles too tough for this Irish team. Samoa might not be the easiest game either tbf, we could still be playing them in the QF. Any team in a knock out game situation should never be underestimated. Look at France in 2007. I don't think we should feel comfortable against anyone, I know I will still be crossing every finger and toe. That's how it should be tbh, means rugby is becoming increasingly competitive. Japan have beaten South Africa and Ireland now in world cups, I don't think it will be that big of a shock if they dumped us out now. Don't get me wrong it is still quite an upset but not now they have shown they can play at that level already. [/QUOTE]
