      Rugby is not that popular a sport in Japan, so there are few referees and the quality of refereeing varies.

The pass to Nakamura was honestly not a bad one but it was very risky so I do agree that it was kinda unnecessary.

    The referee is blind. Can't see the forward pass.

      Buy glasses. Suntory on the field of 10 native Japanese and Toshiba 8. I do not understand why people keep repeating these nonsensical speeches. Yes, foreigners also play in the Japanese league, but there are plenty of Japanese in every team.

    The game was riddled with forward passes, shocking that the referee and the fans said nothing.....

      The game had no more forward passes than most other games, it's just that there were a few extreme ones that were missed by the officials.
