Scotland scrum penalty
9 @ Bullscot:
Good luck for your side, Bully!
Got the points with the kick but may have been worth kicking for touch securing lineout and trying to maul for the try if not getting it Japan may have given another penalty away in stopping the maul and who knows could have been penalty try and even yellow card time
@ grootblousmile:
Thanks Gbs
Japan will be hard-pressed to emulate their display against the Springboks.
The minnows can string 1 or 2 good games together, but that’s about it.
Scotland penalty, another easy one at goal
Scotland 6 / 0 Japan
Japan penalty, 1m inside their own half… kick to touch it is
Very good touchfinder

We are attending to all 3 Rugby World Cup games today, next one is at 17:45 SA Time (Wallabies vs Fiji) and then at 21:00 SA Time (France vs Romania).
Scotland scrum penalty, Japan tighthead dropping his bind.
Scotland 12 / 7 Japan
Scotland not giving the Japan backline any space to move…
Scotland playing the way HM wanted the Boks to play, kicks are chased and pressure put on the catcher, forwards taking the ball up, getting penalties after the pressure, penalties being taken as shots at goal.
