Absolutely heroic defending from us in that second half
now no2 in the World, we were no8 in October, amazing turnaround
Has Maro Itoje ever lost a rugby match?
congrats Show, good game?
Yes mate, it cannot be said that Japan are any kind of world beaters, but they're no mugs either.
This is exactly the tour we needed this summer. Short, and not getting pumped by the big boys. Also giving Stern Vern the chance to try some newbies to hopefully add to our meagre resources.
All good, and I'm happy.
Yeah decent win for the Scots, Japan no mugs as they proved at the World Cup
Ireland lead 19-3 in Johannesburg at Half Time- are we on for another historic series win?
Apparently not. The Saffas have turned it around!

Those pesky criminals!
No shame Ireland. That series is there for the taking.
BELIEVE
the saffers don't look half the side they were tbh, just looked at their whole squad for this tour, very few with more than 20 caps, bit of a transitional phase for them after the losses of the likes of Du Preez, Burger, Habana, JDV etc
not that that takes anything away from Ireland's performances, theyve been terrific, just an observation
gutted for Ireland, they really should have won and they should be dissapointed- third test is going to be incredibly tough now
Wales trying to play an open game They'll be destroyed
Dissppointed by this NZ-Wales series to be honest. Wales seem to put absolutely everything they had into the first test and then were resigned to 3-0 after it. Last two tests have been a walkover.
Cannot fault them tbh. You can give your all in a game Vs NZ but eventually they will break you down with their incredible bench. They are no longer pushovers in a physical game either and will regularly dominate setpieces nowadays
Wales given a hammering!!!
pleased to see Harrison get his chance, an enormous physical specimen, very dynamic and brilliant at the breakdown
Never seen him play,will be interesting
think this will be a very different game, Big Willy in the second row adds something unique for Australia and they have got rid of the underwhelming Kerevi at 12 and they've got another playmaker in Toomua
can see this being a high scoring game, and i think Australia might just edge it today, Australia by 6, both scoring 25+
