Last week Ireland set the standard by scoring 12 tries and 82 points against Romania. This weekend the Romanians face the Springboks and surely the Boks have to put up a similar score.
Pool B must have been a nightmare for those brave Romanian warriors. And they still have to play Scotland as well!
France played Uruguay on Thursday and New Zealand play Namibia on Friday. Both matches could produce 50 points each and who knows how many tries?
On Saturday Wales play Portugal and Ireland play Tonga. Tonga will do better than Portugal but expect another 100 points from those two matches.
Besides South Africa playing Romania on Sunday, two matches could go either way. While Australia was not tested against Georgia, Fiji lost a nailbiter to Wales. Both teams have a point to prove when they meet on Sunday.
England take on Japan and it will be interesting to see how England deal with Owen Farrell after George North’s outstanding performance against Argentina.
There will be eight matches between Thursday and Sunday, with all matches being broadcast live on DStv.
