i was surprise with the japanese this year. i was at the scotland vs japan game and it showed me and the world that basic passing rugby is the key to scoring tries and i think that is what the japanese rugby needs a better understanding off basic rugby and using more simple rugby. but i think the main problem with japanese rugby is the lack off defence like i'll admit that some off the tries that scotland scored against japan could have easily been defended for example when Henry Pyrgos chip it on the 5 metre line into the try line any team could have easily have gotten to it and stop lamont from scoring but the lack of japanese defending cost japan another try. i see that more japanese players are moving to the super 15 rugby which i think could help the japanese rugby alot.

In the short term they need to expose more Japanese players to a higher level of provincial level Rugby aka Super Rugby. Top League sides need to play in a champions style league at some point in the future. Their participation in the Pacific Cup will also help. I feel they need to prioritize the sevens program more as well with the aim of becoming a core side. The JRFU should look at their U20 program and securing promotion to the JWC, more in terms of pre tournament preparation.
