[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1069671, member: 74121"] I think I've lucked out picking the Yokohama Eagles (and not just because they have Cory Hill bringing the razzamatazz :p). I'm interested to see Yu Tamura play with a pack that is not inferior to the opposition. Unsurprisingly he bosses the game. A lovely pair of grubbers early on. To me Tamura is similar to Finn Russell (prior to his move to France), woefully underrated because for Japan and the Sunwolves he has to play in a rush and on the back foot because his pack is being dominated. It seems he'll see out his playing days in Japan, but if language issues could have been overcome I'm sure he could have graced any team in a top European league. Early days, but nice to see a Japanese coached side top of the table, above sides coached by supposed top class expat talent. [MEDIA=youtube]JRfWXdgOy5Y[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
