Makunouchi dohyo-iri (2024)

Finally, here is Makunouchi. We have one shin-maku - so good luck to
Hashira. There are 40 active players this time around, so no need to
have any Juryo interlopers - but we'll probably invite one or two (if
they are good) during week 2...

After a long break, Jejima returns to torikumi making duties :-)

That's ya lot!
