💨 Abstract

Japan has decided to retain Eddie Jones as their coach for the 2027 Rugby World Cup following a performance review. Despite a mixed year with five wins and six losses, including notable defeats and a close victory, the Japan Rugby Football Union praised Jones' development of the team. Japan's 2027 World Cup group includes France, Samoa, and the United States. Meanwhile, South Africa's Rassie Erasmus extended his contract until 2031.
