Prediction for Springbok USA match?

Question

What would you say will be the end score of the Springbok USA game on Sunday and why? Who will be the top try scorer?

Answer 1

RSA has the luxury of having an even better draw than NZ. You guys have a walk to the final. I hope you respect USA and actually start with the big guns and then bring in the bench boys.

I thought the way the starting 15 was all too abruptly replaced in the Tongan game was bad form. If Pretorious had been accurate with his boot the score line would have allowed the bench warmers more time on the pitch. Frustrating first half - the Tongans killed the ball - and I thought the starting fifteen did better than the score showed. Guys like Al van den Burg played well but were unceremoniously marched off - but man, Matfield, Smit and Monty made a difference when they came on.

You can totally spank USA, but will you choose to do so ? You haven't showed us anything new yet. And realistically you won't really have to until the 2nd semi.

You will spank the Yanks, why ? - they simply won't breech the rush defense nor will they go the full 80 mins.

Top try scorer, hard to say, if you are looking to further dial in a wide expansive style of attack then my money will be on the midfield - Jaque Fourie (dangerous) if he is playing, and of course Pieterson,  Habana and Ndungane out wide  - but Im not sure who's been named to play.

If you want to dry run a few line-out set plays and brush up on your mauling and scrumaging - then Bakkies and Burger will be hard to stop close to the line.

It will be a good game, I'll watch with interest . . . looking for any signs of weakness . . . sadly I haven't seen any yet.

All bodes well for a AB vs Bokke final. This year we mustn't allow you to win.

Answer 2

lol Mr Akona will wing it, there's no way Usa can walk away,

Amabokoboko will bring it home, maibuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuyee.......

Answer 3

Well watching the Yaapies just about lose it against the Tongans they look terrible under pressure.I think you will see a more committed effort by the Springbok forwards and i dnt think they will throw the ball around too much in the first half.

If the USA can maintain pressure on the Boks and muscle up in the forwards like they did against my Samoan team they will score a few points, and i hope they give the Boks a good touch up.Goodluck USA AND GO ALLBLACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 4

If Montgomery, Habana, Matfield, Burger and all of them are playing for almost the whole game then I keep SA 60+ and USA below ten.  I think the end score might be something like 66-3 or something.  This is because the US are a weak team and everyone knows that SA played their reserves for most of the game against Tonga.  I think the top try scorer will be Bryan Habana or JP Pietersen, but the top point scorer will be Percy.  

Go Bokke!!!

Answer 5

SA 38-9 USA (penalties given away by Schalk).  Bryan Habana top scorer.

Go Boks

PS To the other poster : Very amusing calling us jaapies, but you might want to at least consider spelling it correctly ;-)

Answer 6

lol  mm about 60 - 3 to the Boks (if they feel like it).  At least a 45 point difference!

Answer 7

USA by 1
