    When Ireland’s plan A goes well they are fearsome. They have no plan B. Crash crash box kick or long kick at the moment.

      The Japanese are playing like their lives depend on it. Ireland look a little sluggish and predictable.

      We probably end up playing the losing team in the quarters.

              Japanese 9 has been outstanding.

                Because he's a shit ref.

                Ireland looking decidedly poor so far.

                  Nah, even if Japan win, they could easily drop a game to Samoa and/or Scotland. But Ireland will beat Samoa and Russia.

                      It was offside he just let it go. Number 1 team in the world always get favoured by the ref

                          You fucking beauty.

                          Thoroughly deserved.

                          Great skill.

                          Ireland lucky Japan scored because the YC was coming out from Gardner.

                          Great kick

                          Japan 16 - 12 Ireland

                            I can’t believe Japan has the lead at the 60 minute mark. Insane.

                                Ireland decided they want to play.

                                Lifted the tempo superbly. And with ease.

                                      Love Japan's tactics - absorb the pressure in the first quarter, stretch the Oiroish out wide and then forwards driving up the centre

                                        At times they come across as 15 Owen Farrell's don't they?

                                          15 minutes to go. Japan two points ahead. Ryan gives away a penalty. Sloppy.
