The Ospreys, having lost a close local derby to the Scarlets, travel to the Cardiff City Stadium for the second of three local derbies over the festive period to face the Cardiff Blues who narrowly beat the Dragons on Boxing Day. Hopefully the Ospreys will have some of their injured/ill players back and the good surface should produce fast, open running rugby.
If the players who missed the Scarlets match are available, I think the side will look something like this:-
N Smith* I Phillips T Botha A Beard R Davies W Griffiths** J Tipuric M Morris (Or *G Thomas & ** D Lydiate)
R Webb S Myler G North K Williams O Watkin* M Protheroe D Evans (Or *T Thomas-Wheeler)
Reps
R Jones S Otten(Surely he has to get a place soon) M Fia L Ashley, O Cracknell
R Morgan-Williams J Thomas S Williams
