No idea who to support for this one... I always back Scotland when they're playing anyone but Wales, but what a story it'd be for Japan to go through.

Think I'll just watch as a neutral and enjoy the occasion.

Win or lose though I hope it's a great game.

So conflicted here. Would love to see Japan win because it would be great for the tournament but that would mean Ireland play New Zealand instead of South Africa.

Although let's be honest, we're probably gonna get a drubbing no matter who we face.

Obviously I should be cheering on Scotland as an Irish supporter, but watching Japan play, I can't help but fall in love.

Promising start for us but the momentum is very much with Japan now. They deserve this lead.

You can tell that Japan are just growing in confidence - Scotland need something to happen to change momentum!

Neither were the two tackles in NZ/Namibia but they still got yellow cards. It's the inconsistency that makes all it so frustrating, just seems like a toss up depending on how the ref is feeling that day.

Sure, it's frustrating. I think this was the right call, however. I've checked it a few times now, and it really didn't seem like he was even trying for a dangerous tackle. Unfortunately we have to deal with human error and inconsistency. Until the AI enslave us, of course.

I agree but at the same time, I could easily see some refs call it reckless because of the swinging arm.

What if they threaten Japan with a lawsuit?

Damn, beautiful try. Japan are a joy to watch.
