Welcome to the Evening Standard’s LIVE coverage of the Rugby World Cup as we look ahead to the semi-finals in Japan.
Eddie Jones made headlines on Tuesday morning after claiming that England's latest training session in Chiba was spied on.
“There was definitely someone in the apartment block filming but it might have been a Japanese fan. I don’t care mate,” he said at a press conference.
The refereeing appointments for this weekend's last-four matches have now been confirmed, with Jaco Peyper not involved following the controversy over a photo of him and Wales fans pretending to elbow each other in the face.
