Oh common JustWin.

Surely you could have set a little time aside for your team? What the hell were you at midnight last night?

You could have had most of your side in place by Wednesday already.

"Or even a combined Japanese /PI team"

That's probably the best and most sensible solution for the Sunwolves, Wardad. It would be a worthy double benefit for both nations and practical.

CC not all Japanese are small but yes they tend to be rather on the small side but they are physically very strong and athletic men...and yes I think they spring surprises...afterall they beat the Boks.

The vision in Japan is obviously long term and I believe in this...that's wh ere rugby should head.

I think we must share and uplift the game with those that are showing promise...look at the Lelos...a side that definitely could take on the big guns with an improved backline, which is very mediocre but their forwards are awesome.

It's obviously not practical and compatible to suggest it but a Japanese backline with Georgian forwards could be a formidable combo..

Rugby's vision has got to be long term..

I think Eddie outsmarted the ignorant, cocksure Meyer that day. Japan would not have stood a chance without him.

Even a dominant scrum didn't help the Goats. It was a great day. Shan't ever forget it

If rugby is the actual target then it would make a lot more sense to bring the the vast talent from the islands out into the open for all to enjoy. Some of these guys are monstrous and can run the 100 in under 11 seconds. They'd sweep any Jap aside without even knowing he was there. Much like Ray Mordt scoring a try in the corner with three on his back.

That's far better for the sport if you ask me.
