J1 returned after the international break on Saturday with great goals and baffling officiating, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

We begin by chatting about the wins for Yokohama F.Marinos and Kashima (to 14:30), before Neil Debnam hops on board for a therapy session on the current state of Kawasaki - 5-2 winners over Sapporo on Saturday evening, but things are clearly not 'right' at the two-time defending champions (to 53:25).

From there we discuss Kashiwa and Hiroshima keeping the pressure on the top three as both won for the third straight game, then head down to the foot of the table where things tightened up after Shimizu and Shonan both claimed important home victories.
