Korea make progress in Five Nations

Korea won comfortably against Arabian Gulf http://http://www.irb.com/newsmedia/regional/newsid=2023683.html and now lie third in the table behind HK and runaway leaders Japan. So far, Korea have been Japan's toughest opponents and the gap between Japan and the rest seems to be growing. If Korea hold their nerve, second place looks to be very possible....If you want to see "our boys" in action, they are at home (Incheon) v Kazakstan next weekend and all the details on how to get there are in the posting a couple below this one.
