South Africa's head coach, Rassie Erasmus, has suggested that Canan Moodie may be included in the starting lineup for the World Cup semi-final against England. Erasmus admitted there is a 'temptation' to recall the young player, indicating a potential change in the team composition. This comes after Erasmus dismissed talk about England being a weak team and emphasized the tight nature of the upcoming match. Clive Woodward, former England coach, expressed confidence in England's victory prospects, particularly with flyhalf Owen Farrell leading the charge. Erasmus also indirectly questioned Ireland's selection approach at the World Cup. The game is set to be closely contested, with both teams vying for a spot in the final.
