[QUOTE="MLB3BB2, post: 755267, member: 70419"] The Boks can rest for 10 days before the QF, so wouldn't they want to get some key players into the match to keep them sharp? Maybe 20 min or so off the bench? The USA squad is definitely playing their 2nd team to keep fresh for Japan, and with little depth in the squad in the front row I expect the Boks to absolutely dominate the scrum... could see some USA props in the bin for repeat offenses, which has been common in recent years. The Eagles have shot themselves in the foot with loads of errors in the first 2 matches but if they keep their heads and play hard they might be able to keep the match from getting too out of control, but the Boks should easily get the bonus point win... with the bonus point likely by the half. No, not at all optimistic from the Eagles' side, but seeing how the USA has played sloppy, disorganized matches is such a stark contrast with the well-drilled and sharp Japanese squad I have no reason to think the Boks should worry about the USA ending up being another Japan.
