We begin with new leaders Hiroshima, who proved they have the mettle to stick around in the title race with a gritty win against the odds at home against Shimizu (to 13:10), before we welcome Stuart Woodward back to the pod after his Yokohama F.Marinos side were pegged back and had to settle for a 2-2 draw away at FC Tokyo (to 40:30).
