Oliver Trenchard asks fans for their views on the prospects for the Sunwolves, Asia’s first Super Rugby team. The Japan-based franchise has lost its first two league matches but picked up a point due to its strong showing against the Cheetahs, who pipped them at the post to win 32-31.

It's obviously hard to tell as it's the first time Japan has competed in Super Rugby, but they haven't had enough preparation time and they were late deciding the players and coach. As a Japanese, I'm excited and hoping for the Sunwolves to do well, but as a fan, too, I want to support them and watch them grow as a team.
