[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 858221, member: 74121"] I agree with all that. Noguchi did come onto a game and you can see what Joseph sees in him. The Japanese fringe defence around the ruck was simply awful for large periods of play. The amount of times Ireland did a simple pick and go, or one pass from the base of the ruck and broke the gain line was frightening, but surely that is something they can quickly improve greatly on. Attacking play was positive and you can see what the side is capable of, but it counts for nothing if you can't do simple defending. Of note, Scotland's win over Australia puts Ireland up to third in the world (Scotland up to fifth). [/QUOTE]
