With the new J3 season kicking off on March 4th, it's time to start previewing the 20 clubs that will be battling it out in Japan's third tier in 2023. 

In a 'J-Talk: Short Corner' takeover, Mike 'The Magic' Innes will be running the rule over the division in a series of 4 preview mini-pods, taking a forensic look at 5 teams in each episode.

In Part A, it's Hachinohe, Iwate, Fukushima, YSCC, & Sagamihara that find themselves under the Mike-roscope (I'm bringing this pun back for increased validation that it's actually funny and clever). 

Hope everyone enjoys the episode - the remaining 3 parts are on the way!

Timecodes:

01:00 to 04:30 - Vanraure Hachinohe

04:30 to 07:50 - Iwate Grulla Morioka

07:50 to 11:20 - Fukushima United

11:20 to 14:40 - YSCC
