Set against the backdrop of a painful memory, Japanese rugby officials grapple with the aftermath of a staggering 145-17 loss to the New Zealand All Blacks during the 1995 World Cup. As they reflect on this humiliation, doubts arise regarding their choice of Eddie Jones as the head coach for the 2015 World Cup.
