RWC: Japan v Russia (Pool A)

[booboo]

Haha. Mrs Boo says "shuddup you whale eating (expletives)"

[rotated]

I'm sure a lot of it is rust and over excitement but gee... Japan look so poor Scotland may even have a chance of beating them.

[MiketheSnow]

Russia showing some deft skills.

More than holding their own.

[Yeetyaah]

Jesus what a boring game. Japan should be running away with it, Russia can't string anything together.

What?

The Russians should be two tries to one up

[No Quarter]

Japan obviously the superior side but making a lot of errors. I expect the Russians to tire and start falling off more and more tackles as the game wears on.

[MiketheSnow]

Dropped

[ACT Crusader]

Not a bad game for a couple of tier 2ers

[KiwiMurph]

Enjoying it a lot.

Russians doing far better than I thought they would.

[MiketheSnow]

Japan in for their second try - debateable forward pass - to go in for oranges with the lead

Russia have done their level best fair play, but second half should be a romp for Japan.

Very cool to have a solitary gong to signal time up.

Japan 12 - 7 Russia
Half-time

That Russian openside looks handy.

Yeah, I hope it stays close too. But the fitness is starting to look suspect

[Yeetyaah]

Oh god these box kicks.

So does their left winger

[Yeetyaah]

@MiketheSnow the gong was a nice touch.

[Yeetyaah]

Amazing try. Good stuff Japan.

[Jailbreak7]

Leitch is very good for Japan but looks old and is starting to wilt

[ACT Crusader]

What a touch finder

[Tim]

Big scrum!
