So after a pretty awful end to the month, year and decade, the Ospreys start the New Year and the new Decade with an away trip to Dave aka Rodney Parade to face Sam Davies and the Dragons. Surely our luck and our confidence has to change some time yeah? I predict the starting team will look something like:-
N Smith, S Otten, M Fia, A Beard, BBBD, Lydiate, Tips, Morris
A Davies, M MacKenzie, H Dirksen, G North, T Thomas-Wheeler, L Morgan, C Evans.
Reps
Fawcett/Marfo, Lake, Gardiner, Ashley, Cracknell, Venter, Price, K Williams
No AWJ or North or Orie who will have gone home or the rest of our injured contingent.
I am genuinely confused by some things....why after taking so long to sign him and eventually get him here to seemingly replace the inept Luke Price, why on earth did we keep the inept Price on the pitch and leave MacKenzie on the bench? We could have gone with Price and 12 even and played the two pivot system or just swapped one for the other?
The other thing that has confused me is why has it taken until around 11pm for a match report of the game today to appear on the Ospreys website? Unless I am wrong but the time says it was posted 25 minutes ago.
