Goooooooo Japan!
You deserve to go out on an absolute high!
C’mon Japan, give Eddie a going away victory
Yeah…Go Japan.. We need Eddie to be confident when he arrives here next week…. not that he ever lacked confidence lol.
I’m worried about this game. These teams meet each other at least twice every year, they know each other. Japan might be down after Scotland secured the 2nd place in the pool, Japan don’t even need to end 3rd to qualify, as hosts that is an automatic qualification.
This is America’s WC final, this is the one game they have been gearing up for.
On WC form, Japan should win, but I’m not sure how much motivation they have, they have beaten the Boks and Samoa and have already proved their point
Yeah. Go Japan. I’m a great supporter of your national dish whilst I have a sharp disaffection for the Big Mac and its little brother Kayfcee
OK, 9 minutes to go till Kick-Off… start shuffling up for the LAST Pool game of Rugby World Cup 2015!
