    Spot on in the studio. Need to make Samoa play and force mistakes from them.

    We should be used to the ball being slippery. Don’t mind kicking plenty in these conditions, put pressure on Samoa.

    Play like this and Japan don’t get near us for me. When it comes to experience and rugby IQ there’s no competition.

    Tell that to Ireland. I really wouldn't be writing off Japan and making it out like the game against them is a dead cert.

    They may not be world beaters but they are smart enough to get Ireland blowing out their arses and then take them out for thr win.

    Never said it was a dead cert. Japan are fantastic but that’s when they make you play their game and Ireland were sucked into that. When we dictate the game and play rugby our way we can beat anyone too. We are better than Japan. So are Ireland. We can learn from Irelands loss, just like we learned from South Africa’s loss last WC.

    Excellent performance, showed our experience and quality, pressure on Samoa early and they made the mistakes. Build on this and same again against Russia then its a huge game against Japan.

    Got to rest bodies against Russia. That game took it out of us and Japan will be even tougher. Hopefully Samoa give them the run around too.

    Keeping Samoa to nil is pretty decent too right?
