[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 515803, member: 48703"] I agree, 2012 has been a poor year for Japan on the field with five losses (although by close margins in the PNC), and in the crowds also. They have 7 stadiums of over 40,000 to fill (see link [URL]http://www.therugbyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?26777-Stadia-for-the-2019-World-Cup-in-Japan[/URL]) and their national team is getting between 3,000 to 6,000 attendances, general average being 5,500 from a 27,000 stadium. It doesn't sound promising. At the same time as Japan playing the French Barbarians in front of 5,628 fans, there was a Women's club football match which was just under 17,000. Here is a picture of the 80% empty stadium. [IMG]http://www.tokyocrusaders.com/wp-new/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/japanXV.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
