The Springboks are wary of the "passionate" Romanians but have hinted they could be set to ring the changes ahead of this weekend's second Pool B clash at the Rugby World Cup.
The Springboks refuse to look beyond their next World Cup clash against Romania, despite the massive battle against Ireland that awaits.
Johnny Sexton marked his long-awaited comeback with two of 12 tries as Ireland launched their Rugby World Cup campaign by blitzing Romania in Bordeaux.
The Springboks don't have a very easy path to the Rugby World Cup final this time around, but coming through a tough pool is sure to leave them battle-hardened for the playoffs.
