A midday kickoff in Tokyo. Thankfully it won't be 40 degrees - in fact it looks like it will be quite cool and potentially even wet.
Forecast is for rain coming in the afternoon, so they might have fine weather, but it’ll rain at some point, is my guess.
25 degrees today, so should be about 18-22 on Saturday. Nothing like last time for the weather, at least...

@rocky-rockbottom I'm planning to watch this afternoon. Honestly, this feels like an abusive relationship at this stage. I keep coming back for more, and I know they're not going to change.
I’ve moved to hate watching. If we lose today then Tana has to quit.
Even if it’s a close result he should go, but he already shown that lack of class after shipping 63point on Eden Park.
But hilariously he’s picked the strongest side he can for the Sunwolves to protect his job. Fuck squad management, right?

I don’t want to stand up for Tana, but, when 2nd to last plays last (away), it’s usually a good idea to pick a strong side, especially when they cleaned you up last year.
I don’t take any joy out of pointing this out btw.
Yep, makes sense.
And if you have driven a mediocre team into the ground, to such a degree that they are scared of losing (again) to the Sunwolves, then perhaps you should quit?
Or at least be fired by a competent board.

I think he should be fired. But, if I were him, I'd aim to win as many games against non NZ opposition and hope for the best.
My conspiracy theory is that he's already been re-appointed (secretly) so needs a few wins to justify the stupidity of the board's early decision.
And, from an AB perspective, I'd be happy if he puts out weak teams (i.e., no Ioanes) against NZ oppo, so they aren't beaten up before international duty. I think Akira will be needed this year.

Have put $100 on the Sunwolves.
Tony brown to school the celebrity coach in how to prepare an intelligent gameplan. Michael Little to have a blinder.
Is that just one celebrity coach being better than another?

Very brave, I don’t think I could put $5 on either team!
