Our scrum is sh&t.

Wasn't this the U20s where they picked fatties to do core roles?

Having said that, one thing I've noticed watching Japanese kids training at school; they're very drill focused honing skills to do them well.

[Stargazer]

@antipodean Yep, the scrum was one of the things they focused on during the preparations for this tournament. Our scrum went well against Fiji, but not today.

LOL and a fatty passes from the centre to the wing - The Tanibadger in

[Stargazer]

Commentators are talking shit.

[antipodean]

That's an awesome try.

[Stargazer]

Geezus. Defence is absent. Another Japanese try. Friday's team was better.

[Stargazer]

@antipodean Yeah, looked awesome. But frustrating from a NZ pov.

[Stargazer]

Good finish from Herbert, but that was Lalomilo's work rewarded.

[antipodean]

Good hard running from the NZ centre and off load to the inside running openside in support.

It's going to be that size and strength that makes this contest predictable.

[antipodean]

Brilliant individual try from the second five-eighth. Chip and chase.

[Stargazer]

Great try from McLeod!

[Machpants]

I see the Ozzie boys are seeing how it's done

[Stargazer]

Very easy try. Japan's defence is worse than ours.

[antipodean]

No way the fullback was onside.

[Steven Harris]

Only about 2 metres offside

[Machpants]

Is our half-back part Irish?

[Stargazer]

@Machpants Funaki? Haha, I doubt it. Why?

Nice Murray-esque box kick on him. Lots of. Look a little bit like that great Irish centre, O'Aki

[Stargazer]

Average first half. Weak scrum, leaky defence, sloppy passing. It's only because Japan can't defend that we are so far ahead.

[Steven Harris]

@Stargazer well summed up..!
