The last 5 weeks have been incredibly challenging for the Ospreys. They have faced the English champions, Leicester Tigers (L), French champions, Montpelier (W), the Scarlets (W), Cardiff (W) and Irish powerhouses, Leinster (L) with the two losses being close ones. Now the URC takes a short break as we welcome Montpelier to the Swansea.com stadium for a mouth watering RCC fixture on Saturday night. In his post match presser, Booth said that he thinks most of the players will be good to go but he will be sweating on knocks to Roots and Morris but I expect them both to be available for selection so I anticipate the squad looking like this....
N Smith G Thomas D Lake S Baldwin T Francis T Botha A Beard R Davies AWJ J Morgan J Tipuric M Morris E Roots/H Sutton
R Webb RMW O Williams K Giles K Williams M Collins A Cuthbert J Walsh J Hawkins M Nagy/C Evans
Does Booth rotate the front 3 again? Does he start Beard and Rhys? Does he stick with RMW at 9?
I think the likely starting team will be
G Thomas S Baldwin T Botha A Beard R Davies J Morgan J Tipuric M Morris
R Webb O Williams K Giles K Williams M Collins A Cuthbert J Walsh
Can anyone explain what we need to qualify for the champions cup knockouts? Lauren Jenkins said that we’ve qualified but it’s not decided whether that’s for the champions or challenge cup.
