South Africa v Namibia
By Loosehead22nd September 2011 09:00 GMT
It seems slightly odd that South Africa coach Peter De Villiers has opted to field a virtually full strength side against weak opposition in Namibia but presumably he is looking to maintain momentum following their fine win over Fiji. They also have 8 days until their final pool fixture against Samoa so a slightly longer recuperation time than usual.
This is likely to spell danger for Namibia. They have already been hammered by both Fiji and Samoa and a full strength Springbok side is much superior to either of them. Conditions look set to be fine so expect there to be plenty of tries scored by the men in green.
Selection – South Africa -56 to beat Namibia – 4 points at 1.83 Sportingbet
