I find myself thinking back to the 2007 World Cup. Australia put 100 points on Japan easy. My word how far they have come!!!! It has been an absolute privilege to watch the Blossoms emerge on the world stage as genuine contenders. Makes me think of similar strides the Pumas have made. What a joy to see Rugby Union spreading across the globe and more nations stepping up to make this great sport truly a world game. Hats off to Japan! An exciting future for the game awaits us all!!!

The early 90s to early 2010s were a strange 20 year period where some teams got the jump on professionalism before others. That's how you end up with South Africa putting 90 points on Wales in the late 90s, and the big results against Japan that you mentioned. Yeah they've done well to catch up but a lot of it is more to do with getting back to a truer balance as existed before rugby went professional in 95. It's actually the big 50+ thumpings in the 90s and 00s that are the anomalies, as the big unions and nations had all the benefits of professionalism before the others.

@@KernowekTim yeah, sure, Japan and the rest of world rugby are there for NZ to exploit by moving coaches around to ultimately benefit NZ Rugby! It’ll only ‘be good for all concerned’ because you’re a Kiwi speaking from the position of the arrangement enabling you to line-up Robinson to coach the ABs in a few years after Joseph has had his time. Rather NZ-centric thinking on your part which treats Japan as a convenient feeder team to groom future coaches. In fact rather how NZ has always treated the other SH nations; there to be used by way of generating higher broadcasting income and to have the ‘honour’ of playing the Ab side every season but never considered equals.

The japanese crowd are so respectful, cheering after the final AB penalty was kicked, got the vibe they were just enjoying the sportsmanship and each other's company. kudos

I'm an AB's fan al day long, but the best team did not win today. Reminds me of the Scotland game where Scotland had a chance to win it save for a bad pass from Hogg (a theme sadly for such an otherwise phenomenal player). If Yamanaka holds on to the intercept, he's in. If the forward pass to RTS is called then, Japan are up by 5 or 7. With that momentum, skill, and belief, I really think they could have won this game. All that being said, what a massive level of growth from Japan. It's only a matter of time before Japan beats them. Ireland suffered losses like this and look where they are now. Japan beat Ireland not too long ago.
