Selection

John Allen has been selected to captain the Blues for the first time in the last game of the 2002 Japan Tour. Minor injuries to captain Fraser Gemmell, Tim Barlow and Nick Edwards mean that they were not considered for selection.

A capacity 15,000 crowd is expected at the Prince Chichubu Stadium on Sunday afternoon, kick off 2.00 pm (6.00am GMT) with the game being shown live on Japanese TV. Ex OURFC player Soushi 'George' Fuchigami has been recruited by Japanese TV to act as a guest match summariser.

The current weather forecast is for the game to be played in 30 degree plus temperatures and as such should be good preparation for the Varsity Match in December.
