Japan are playing beautifully. Superb pace and accuracy.

They’re getting to the edge every time due to pace of ball. Once there, particularly down Darcy Graham’s wing (he’s struggling in defence) they’re having real joy.

Think we have nothing to lose by bringing Horne on now. Probably Reid for the scrums too.

Cummings should probably wait for 10 mins

I’m biased of course but not sure about some of these scrum decisions.

Yup it's piss poor. Dell has done little wrong but the ref has taken a dislike to him so we have little choice but to get Reid on if we want to try and salvage this.

Laidlaw's pass is putting Russell under all kinds of pressure in the opening first min...

Fair play to Japan. I have no words. It would be a complete travesty if we somehow won this and put them out of the competition.

They are superb.

The irony is Japan play rugby like Toony claims we were going to and are going to.

This really is like Barbarians rugby. For the neutral this is superb stuff.

What I'm loving about Japan is they never do any flappy-arms-red-face looking for the penalty. They just go go go.

Trust the welsh WUMs to start appearing. I forgot a few of them are still on RR after gaylads / gwlad got shut down.

Ritchie completely butchers a try as he misses Hogg on his shoulder.
