Japan 25 / 18 USA
8 Minutes to go, only 7 points in it!
Japan lineout, on halfway.
@ grootblousmile:
Now it’s on your margin and 1 point away from my pick by 6
I see we are vying for the yellow cap, if they win by 7 you might just go past me for the cap 😀
Japan needs to stay accurate here now…
Japan kickable penalty… and shot it is
94 @ nortie:
Hehehe,
This penalty will screw both of us!
Don’t understand that call, ref shouts maul, and then straight away after that he indicates a penalty.
Surely once the defending team has held the ball up and gets the shout of maul it’s an indication that they have won a scrum?
Japan 28 / 18 USA

My hope is an unconverted try by USA at the death, will give me another 2,5 in the money pool and a very handy lead going into the QF
3 Minutes left to play
Still great Japanese defence.
USA advantage is played…
Penalty is given, quick tap and go
USA penalty again… tap and go again by Duratalo
Japan once again steal the ball…
Stupid waste of penalties by the yanks, they could have set up the line out
Game Over!
Not too bad, at least we got a margin and a GSP
Final Score: Japanese Brave Bloosoms (17) 28 / 18 (8) USA Eagles
Well done Japan. Great WC
108 @ nortie:
Yeah… not bad at all!
I should move up a number of places….
Till 3pm on Saturday. …
Congratulations to Japan and to Eddie Jones!
Domo arigato for a wonderful Rugby World Cup, Japan!
I salute you!
Pity Japan did not go through to the play offs.. it would have been good for the game
They would not have stand a chance in the playoffs but neither does Scotland have a chance .
But I guess Australia deserves a relative easy game after winning the pool of death
@ grootblousmile:
Just managed to hang onto the yellow cap
OK folks… that’s me out for tonight!
I will update the results and the Logs of both the Rugby World Cup and the Currie Cup tomorrow!
Have a good one!

@ robzim:
Agree, I think every neutral fan would have preferred to have them in the top 8 instead of Scotland.
They certainly deserve to be there
@ nortie:
Huge pity… 3 out of 4 and they are going home…perhaps they should have given them double points for the win against SA 🙂
