After a rather impressive win against French Top14 Castres, the Ospreys will travel up to Worcester for the next round of the European Challenge Cup next Saturday with an 8pm kickoff. A Worcester side showing 15 changes from the Premiership side last out against Bristol, lost a close game to Pau only by a last minute try so the Ospreys can take nothing for granted at Sixways where there will be a few thousand fans in attendance.
The artificial surface at Sixways should produce a fast flowing game so the Ospreys will need to play for the full 80 minutes. Will the winning side remain or will we see Watkin, Webb and Giles make a welcome return, injuries notwithstanding?
I think Tips should return if fit so the starting team will be similar to last week...
G Thomas, S Parry, M Fia, L Ashley, R Davies, W Griffiths, J Tipuric (c), M Morris *Lydiate for Tips if unfit
S Venter, S Myler, G North, K Williams, T Thomas-Wheeler, M Protheroe, D Evans
Reps
N Smith, I Phillips (1 of 3), T Botha, A Beard, D Lydiate (*Cracknell) M Aubery, *O Watkin, *K Giles -- *S Williams *L Morgan
Discuss....
