After another disappointing loss, last time out against the Bulls, the Ospreys need to pick themselves up as they prepare to visit Ireland for the match against Ulster. With a couple of nasty looking injuries, the Ospreys will be close to the bare bones in some areas of the pitch and they will be grateful that the SA boys have arrived and the likes of Keelan look ready for a return. We expect that Botha and Conbeer will not feature but not sure about Kieran Williams so I will omit him for now.

Few short memories on this string
Toby changed the attitude and culture after years of great players and very poor coaches
His recrutement aided by Mike has largely been effective
He is highly regarded which is why people join and play for him
Our highly rated money man ( I have been appointed to cut losses ) has cut his feet from under him
Where is the money for a quality TH which obviously is required , who makes the decision the money man , the new coaches or Toby
Not sure of the future now
Will the council vote next month to lend the £4m for refurbing SH with the continual statements leaked from WRU
If we have a poor season and no ground will history repeat itself as it did in the Neath Whites combination ( we still wear black tho at odds with Neath)
And the WRU force us into a merger with Llanelly
