The wind must have caught it
Japanese rugby clubs have invested millions of yen to attract some of the world’s best talents and transform its top division into a premier competition.
Test stars such as Nick Cummins, Fourie du Preez, Todd Clever, JP Pietersen, Berrick Barnes and Schalk Burger all ply their trade in Japan’s Top League and are well compensated for their trouble.
The league should perhaps invest in a better standard of referee if this clip of a somehow legal line-out is allowed to stand.
Former Samoan international Eliotoa Fuimaono tweeted out the clip and followed it up by declaring, ‘If Japan want world rugby to take em serious, they’d better fix the standard of refereeing. The world scrutinise referees! Japan must too.’
Irish hookers such as Rory Best and Sean Cronin would really relish World Cup 2019, in Japan, if line-out throws such as this are allowed to stand.
