Scotland will be eliminated from the World Cup if Sunday's match against Japan is cancelled on safety grounds.

In a statement, World Rugby said:"We remain optimistic that Sunday's remaining matches will go ahead as scheduled in Kumamoto, Hanazono and Yokohama, which are much further south and therefore outside of the impact of the storm conditions this morning." "We will undertake detailed venue inspections as soon as practically possible with an announcement following as soon as decisions are made in the morning.

The storm has gone . Now is a clear sky around studium. We are confident that the game gonna be held and team Japan win.

Is quite incredible being disqualified by a storm.

Would be a huge shame if they went out on a technicality considering the form against Samoa and Russia to head into the game with Japan. Here's hoping it goes ahead.
