I think that Japanese team looks very similar to last week's team, but with last week's bench players starting and some starters moving to the bench.

[Bovidae]

No Dearns.

[Nepia]

Bell is one funny looking mofo.

[Duluth]

Nareki almost fucked that try up

Yeah, Weber saved that for him.

[Canes4life]

Love sets up Proctor for the first try.

[Canes4life]

Perofeta in after easily slicing through the Japanese backline.

[Duluth]

Perofeta nice step. AJ Lam with a good chase at kickoff to setup the turnover

[Duluth]

There was no advantage from that scrum pen

[Duluth]

Shit from Nareki again

[gt12]

How many errors from Nareki?

[Canes4life]

Lovely from Proctor again. Try no 2 for him tonight. The Goodhue and Proctor centre combo looks classy.

[Duluth]

@Canes4life

Proctor has been defending well too. Some good work just before Strange got isolated and Japan scored

[Duluth]

That’s better Nareki

[Grooter]

Great from Nareki and Proctor

Even better from Goodhue

Fantastic 40 20 and try set up from nareki. Yes he screwed up a couple of times. But, it is all about pumping the positive.

[Canes4life]

Proctor for a first half hat trick. Can he replicate Marc Ellis and score 5
