Stunning stuff by the Japanese. Those who said Eddie was nothing...think again. The best coach in rugby, does it again.
But what heart from the Japanese.
These people have been through so much. The worst natural disaster in 20 years, followed by a nuclear disaster. They deserve a bit of joy.
One of the great upsets in sports. A game they will show 50 years from now...we were privileged to witness it live.

Absolute joke of a performance by us. But too right Moz, top marks to the Japanese, showed great heart and desire to do well for their country.

Plenty of pieces to pick up. But if we can win our other pool games, this sets up a better route to the final. But can we beat the mighty USA?

Like ou toppie Kriel who missed the tackle for the last try...and ou toppie Coenie who gave them a penalty which set up the move upfield and then yellowed himself.

great comments guys...eddie jones is the master of space manipulation....his focus on the details just once again shows his epic skillset.
amazing how the japs used the inside runners to stop the defenders on the second line outside of the attacking channel.....masterfull execution of attack ball

Brycy, Boks were even kakker than you think. Yes, Moz, I saw that, but we should not have been in that position in the first place. No excuses, Meyer and SA Rugby made one big FU of our RWC challenge. FCKing JAPAN!

Last year I suggested Eddie as the coach for the Boks and many scoffed at the idea
I said then, that this guys tactical mind is second to none
What he has done to this Japanese team is phenome nal
Well done Japan, the emotion, determination, and down right will to win was fantastic to see

Ou muncher thinks his criticism is something new. He is years behind the curve.

Brycy....you are spot on.
The Proteas are going to battle to make it to the next round.
Now if only we had a Springbok team playing in the WC it would be a different story.
You know the South African team that use to wear the Springbok emblem on their chest and not on their sleeve.
NIPPON.

Once again showing your class Moz, I agree, we should be gracious in defeat and accept that we were beaten by a better team on the day. Japan were courageous, skillul and smart.

Unfortunately, contemporary South Africans are quite sour and Bitter in defeat and turn on their own.

Whaaaat???
You told us all just how useless he was ... and now he's the best coach in the world??
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!
Listen up you stupid man ... before you do a 180 on us it would perhaps be a good idea to remember what you said earlier ... saves you the embarrassment of coming up with a counter excuse.
Haaaaaaaahahahahahaaaa!!

Most of them are. The trouble areas are lock and flank though.
