England 34 - 12 Japan
Steve Borthwick’s training finally bore fruit as England scraped out a last minute bonus point against Japan.
As close as 13-12 at one point, two massive flukes gifted England with 14 more points, with one try born from a failed Japanese line out, and another from the ball bouncing off of Joe Marler’s head. Still technically in play, the ball was dotted down in the confusion, and the points were rewarded.
Japan were fluid and threatening for most of the match, but couldn’t turn any possession into points outside of a few penalty kicks. The potential was there, but little dame of their efforts.
England were far from perfect, but the stronger outfit on the day, on top of the leaderboard with 9 points. Argentina and Samoa will both fancy the runner up spot, and the Brave Blossoms still aren’t out of the running, but it’s still a very open pool. England are in the driving seat despite their problems, but who knows?

And so begins another week of high volume work — somewhat of a play on PHA programming, explained a bit here. Not so much as the specifics of the program; rather, the principles of volume and blood flow through the whole body. Clips here are the 10th round for each sequence. Sufficiently knackered!
2 sequences of 4 movements x 10+ repetitions (7 for the pulls/chins; 20 for squats) x 10 rounds. All of sequence 1 x 10, short break, all of sequence 2 x 10.
Sequence 1: Pull-ups - 10 x 7 Bodyweight squats - 10 x 20 Ring flys - 10 x 10 Band shrugs - 10 x 10
Sequence 2: Chin-ups - 10 x 7 BW lunges (added the jump bit) - 10 x 10 Ring push-ups - 10 x 10 Band angled delt raises - 10 x 10
Background noise was France v Japan rugby from yesterday morning.

All Blacks northern tour against Japan will kick off in Tokyo at 6:50pm
Over 63,000 tickets have been sold for Japan vs New Zealand All Blacks at Tokyo’s National Stadium on Oct. 29, the Japan Rugby Football Union announced Wednesday.
NZ Rugby has copped to the scheduling clash that will see the All Blacks and Black Ferns play tests at the same time on Saturday.
The opening test of the All-Blacks northern tour against Japan will kick off in Tokyo at 6:50pm, then 40 minutes later, the Black Ferns’ Rugby World Cup quarter-final against Wales begins at Whangārei.
The crowd is expected to be the largest recorded in Japan for a match outside of those played during the 2019 Rugby World Cup, surpassing the 57,011 who saw the Brave Blossoms host France on July 9.
Japan will play New Zealand at Tokyo’s National Stadium on Oct. 29 before traveling to Europe for matches against England and France in November.
Blues, North Harbour winger Mark Telea replaces Leicester Fainga’anuku in touring squad
Blues and North Harbour winger Mark Telea has been called into the All Blacks squad as a replacement for Leicester Fainga’anuku in preparation to face Japan. Telea, 25, was called into the All Blacks earlier this year to cover Will Jordan, as COVID-19 hit the team before the series-opening test against Ireland.
With Fainga’anuku leaving the All Blacks camp in Japan for family reasons, Telea will join the side in Tokyo, where they will face the ‘Brave Blossoms’ on Saturday night.

Six New Zealand players who did not board the plane to Japan
The three Barrett brothers, Scott, Jordie and Beauden, were among six New Zealand players who did not board the plane to Japan on Saturday after their grandmother died.
Sam Whitelock, Will Jordan and Folau Fakatava were also left at home because of injury, and back Fainga’anuku returned to New Zealand on Monday for family reasons.
The All Blacks called up four players as cover on Saturday and assistant coach Scott McLeod said selectors were weighing up a replacement for Fainga’anuku.
Retallick said the team had “probably lost more players in the space of 24 hours than you do in a series of Test matches”.
Other players who got the unexpected call to join the side were lock Patrick Tuipulotu for Whitelock and halfback Brad Weber. Weber will be with the side for the Japan game. A reassessment will be made after that game with a possibility that TJ Perenara may join them afterwards.
He wasn’t considered for Japan, as he is playing the Bunnings NPC final on Saturday.
Also joining them is Damian McKenzie as cover for Beauden and Jordie Barrett.
The players called up were all named in the All Blacks XV to play Ireland A, and the Barbarians. They are expected to join them when the Barretts and Whitelock return to the side.
Foster said it wasn’t a setback for the tour plans – it was more of a readjustment.
Japan would be well-primed for the All Blacks after three games against Australia A, and the match was much more of a contest than earlier stop-offs at the start of northern tours.
“They’ve got some big scalps under them, they’ve got a proven programme and some of the noise out of there is they are extremely confident about the game. It changes the mindset, so for us it is a tour of four Test matches.”
Unexpected changes have been forced on the All Blacks at the outset of the Healthspan Elite Northern Tour and Lipovitan-D Challenge Cup.

Blundered into a rugby match.
Plan was to go look at cherry blossom and rape seed. Ended up catching lunch at stand (Cuba Sand was neat) and watching opposing fans queue at one another's merch stores.
Quite a fun and friendly atmosphere, which I remembered from my two visits to Twickers to watch England and the Barbarians, and North vs South Hemispheres.
I am tempted to join the fan club and go to a couple of Steelers Games...

Japan 42 - 12 Chile
Los Condóres first ever RWC match got off to a good start, with the men in red scoring a try after just six minutes.
Between yellow cards hampering their momentum however, the Japanese proved too strong, and dreams of a miracle victory were dashed before long. Chile will take a lot of positives from this match however, as they managed two impressive tries against a far stronger nation, and kept up with the Brave Blossoms for most of the 80 minutes.
Japan won’t be encouraged by their performance today, but a win’s a win, and they’ve got three giants in their sights in England, Argentina and Samoa if they want to escape the pool.
