Fiji are a decent side , if the USA got stuck into rugby they'd be a major power .
The England vs. SA game is a great one cos so much could happen there , I'd call it much closer , say 35 - 33 England.

I agree. The US doesnt have any professional rugby teams (like the NFL).. all the guys have to play on the side- club teams & hold down regular jobs. If US had some (even one) win at the world, it might change like womens soccer did.

England plays great rugby- I think the spread will be at least 10 pts against SA.

Lets have an actual scoreline if you please, so we can see who was closest.

The NFL would be shaking in its boots if rugby became popular in the States , no more pads , no more bullshit with sit down , start up plays , just get the fuck on with it cold fury. Too many vested interests there to see rugby making genuine inroads. If you've ever seen a good Springbok side play rugby you'd know why I'm giving them such a start, when they get it right , they're a joy to watch.
