[QUOTE="MLB3BB2, post: 633352, member: 70419"] I'll be optimistic that with more time together in training and warm-up matches pre WC the Eagles will play much better. The USA scrum was very disappointing vs Uruguay, though, especially considering the pack weights, so that has be a focus. I think that as Americas2 the Eagles have landed in a much more interesting group than Canada and it should be fun to watch. I'll be guardedly optimistic that the Eagles can upset Scotland in the WC, especially since the Scots have only a 4 day turnaround after their 1st match whereas the Eagles have a full week. So will we see Scotland's 2nd string start for that match? Similarly, the Eagles will have full rest and the Springboks short rest before our match with SA; I won't dream of an upset, but perhaps a better-than-expected showing. On the flip side, Asia1/Japan will catch the Eagles with short rest, with full rest for them, so that match could go against us. But I'll be there pulling for them nonetheless! [/QUOTE]
