Samoa are worse than Villa at taking advantage of the extra man.

Scotland v Japan is ON. Despite my tongue in cheek comments from a couple of days ago I'm pleased it's going ahead. My prediction is Japan to win a tight one. If Scotland do manage to pull it off fair play to them.

[Axl Rose]

I'll say a draw. Would rather Scotland win, to be miserably fair.

[Meanwood Villa]

A draw is a very bold prediction in rugby!

Haha. True. I'd just read that the Japanese are the draw specialists at world cups, and I think that inspired my prediction!

I'm going a Scotland win but by less than 7 with the bonus point putting Japan through.

[cdbearsfan]

Mon Scotland.

It's gone very quiet in our living room where my wife and her mates are watching. I'm sat in the kitchen preparing for work, a bit grumpy because it's a national holiday tomorrow, but universities are still open.

I might just show Braveheart.

Come on Scotland. Plenty of time for Japan though.

[Meanwood Villa]

Cracking start to the match.

If a 7 year old who doesn't really like sport and knows nothing about rugby can see feeding, why can't the refs ?

Red for Gray, surely.

When did Paul Lambert become Scotland manager? This has been a disgraceful performance since the opening try.

[luke:lamf]

In fairness, the Japanese are playing some lovely, fluid rugby and have the fervent hometown support willig them on.

Need to hang in there, mate. Big second half coming.

Too late to call it off for the weather?!
