Bottled it against a Japanese team who only took up rubby a few months back. Nobody in Japan plays rubby.
That defeat will sting for a while.
Need winners like Drico, Paulie and Rog back who know how to perform at group stage World Cup matches.

Could have been worse I suppose 
Panel of âexpertsâ gave their predictions on the outcome today. Its fair to say the Japanese werent given much of a chance. The independent happened to be on the table when I got home today.
