[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1068741, member: 74121"] Apologies LM, but I thought your earlier thread might be better to revive due to it having the teams and logos. Venturing onto Wikipedia, of the 12 first division sides the following two have a Japanese head coach (Wild Knights also reportedly have a Japanese head coach under Robbie Deans): Shizuoka Blue Revs Yokohama Canon Eagles I think it is important that Japanese coaches can succeed next to some fairly strong SH coaches. It'll be the Yokoham Canon Eagles for me as they have my favourite Japanese player Yu Tamura in their squad. I'll have a soft spot for the Blue Revs because they have a Scottish born fellow I've never heard of (Murray Douglas, ex of Hurricanes?). Aged 32, surprised he's never apparentlg been capped by Scotland. Seems the top 4 go to the playoffs and the bottom three enter a playoff / relegation tournament with the top three from Division 2, which sounds a bit tasty. Details on individual teams can be found at the website below from a French speaking Japanese rugby fan called Hinato: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.asierugby.com/jrl-one-division-1[/URL] [/QUOTE]
