澳大利亚橄榄球队瓦拉比斯队正为周六在日本的比赛做准备,采取了一系列热适应措施来应对当地的极端气候条件。球队在神户进行了35度高温下的训练,并从悉尼开始进行桑拿适应训练,在大阪继续进行相关准备[1]。研究表明,为期8至14天的日常高温暴露配合运动可帮助运动员进行热适应,最快可在5天内见效[1]。
后卫罗布·瓦莱蒂尼表示,日本队可能会在比赛中利用炎热条件作为战术优势,他说:"我们认为他们会将这个因素融入他们的比赛计划,试图让我们累得精疲力尽。"[1]日本队近期状态不俗,他们在7月以27比10击败意大利,对阵爱尔兰仅落后6分[1]。
在人员配置上,亨特·帕伊萨米将因队友伦·伊基陶受伤而获得先发中锋位置的机会[1]。帕伊萨米最近与日本职业球队静冈蓝列兵队签订了三年合约[1],这场比赛对他争取入选2027年世界杯名单具有重要意义[1]。
The Australian rugby union team is implementing specialized heat acclimatization protocols to prepare for extreme conditions expected during Saturday's test match in Japan.[1] Athletes have undergone sauna exposure training beginning in Sydney and continuing in Osaka, with the squad conducting practice sessions in 35-degree temperatures in Kobe.[1] Research indicates that athletes can achieve heat adaptation through eight to fourteen days of daily heat exposure combined with exercise, though some benefits can emerge within five days.[1]
The preparation reflects Japan's anticipated tactical approach, as forward Rob Valetini noted: "We think that they'll try to use that in their game plan and try to run us off our feet."[1] Japan has demonstrated recent form, defeating Italy 27-10 in July and trailing Ireland by only six points in a recent contest.[1] Meanwhile, Hunter Paisami will make his starting appearance at inside centre, replacing injured teammate Len Ikitau.[1] This opportunity carries significance for Paisami, who recently signed a three-year contract with Shizuoka Blues Revs and is positioning himself for potential 2027 World Cup selection consideration following his relocation to Japan.[1]
