LONDON (Reuters) - South African supporters could catch a glimpse of the future if the only uncapped member of their Rugby World Cup squad gets a run-out against the United States in their Pool B clash at the Olympic Stadium on Wednesday.

Bulls scrumhalf Rudy Paige has been named on the bench for the first time and should the game situation allow it, is certain to get a first run-out in a Springbok jersey.
