“It’s my first Rugby World Cup but I’ve quickly learned it’s easy to get lost in everything that’s going on,” said full-back Freddie Steward. “The media circus and the hype around the RWC is amazing, but being at places like this, it’s nice to have that distraction and escape from that for a bit. And then you can really switch it on when the games come thick and fast. 

It’s always good to see teams in a relaxed mood before big games. Playing in a World Cup match is a matter of pride and pressure. Both the teams will feel the pressure when they come out on Sunday.

“We’ll expect the best of Japan at this weekend, they have upset teams before,” said May.
