@Trinats, Japan won't be host to RWC 2015, 2015 is in England

@Trinats: I wish France could always beat NZ ... unfortunately they beat us most of the time. And Rugby is not maths nor logic. It's a sport where most of the time the best team wins. I don't feel Japan is a better team than Japan, or maybe in your dream ?

@Trinats: I don't see how a full Japanese team could prevent the ABs the pick up a bonus point. They did not manage it with France who played like s*** ...

Lol wishful thinking trinats. Do you really think Japan could test the AB's at home? Even the Wallabies haven't won in NZ for over 10 years. And you just said yourself they did the same thing against Aus in 07, is that the nation of his birth?

They are targeting 2 wins and automatic qualification for 2015. Remember they've only got a 5 day turn around after the AB's gane, they'll want to be Fresh to have a real shot at doing it. Tonga & Canada aren't easy games either, both are physical sides.
