Scarlets v Ospreys at Parc y Scarlets 26.12.11 KO 2:05pm
First topic message reminder :
A sell out crowd should provide the perfect atmosphere to what has the potential to be a very good, highly competative game of rugby.
Scarlets Team:: 15 Liam Williams, 14 George North, 13 Scott Williams, 12 Jon Davies, 11 Sean Lamont, 10 Rhys Priestland, 9 Gareth Davies, 1 Rhodri Jones, 2 Matthew Rees (capt), 3 Rhys Thomas, 4 Lou Reed, 5 Dominic Day, 6 Aaron Shingler, 7 Rob McCusker, 8 Ben Morgan.
Replacements: 16 Ken Owens, 17 Phil John, 18 Deacon Manu, 19 Sione Timani, 20 Johnathan Edwards, 21 Rhodri Williams, 22 Stephen Jones, 23 Iongi Viliame.
Key players that are still recovering from illness/injury such as Damien Welch and Iestyn Thomas not included, with the Scarlets mindful they only have a four day turnaround before another big match against the Dragons away on the 30th December.
Ospreys meanwhile have been hit hard by injury and suspension in their 2nd row position and will be without Ian Evans, AW Jones and I Gough. However a big shout out to Adam Jones who will be earning his 150th start for the Osprey's on Monday.
Ospreys team: 15 Barry Davies 14 Tommy Bowe 13 Andrew Bishop 12 Ashley Beck 11 Shane Williams 10 Dan Biggar 9 Kahn Fotuali'i 1 Paul James 2 Richard Hibbard 3 Adam Jones 4 James King 5 Jonathan Thomas 6 Ryan Jones 7 Justin Tipuric (Capt) 8 Joe Bearman
Replacements: 16 Mefin Davies 17 Ryan Bevington 18 Aaron Jarvis 19 Tom Smith 20 George Stowers 21 Rhys Webb 22 Matthew Morgan 23 Hanno Dirksen
How does everyone see this one going? After a hard fought draw at the Liberty earlier in the season, can either side get the upper hand on the other?

Artful - see my post above, but yes it's annoying. This isn't the Welsh premiership or the 1980s.

Can't wait for Henson, Hook, Byrne, Phillips, Collins and Holah to return from injury. We badly need them.

I can understand why Pontypridd fans don't have time for the Blues. Being from Neath, Imagine if Swansea had become a region and kept it's name as Swansea. Nobody from Neath would ever go to the regional games.
Geographically it should have been REGIONAL.
1. Llanelli / Carmarthen or BOTH
2. Merthyr / Pontypridd or BOTH
3. Cardiff / Newport
4. Wrexham
Too many "regions" along ONE 50 mile stretch of motorway ALL in South Wales.

Oh god they're playing that awful version of The Smith's "Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want". They should've played Clayhill's version. Anyway, second half...come on O's....

I was referring to his almost constant whining and whinging to the ref / assistants / anybody, he could be a very very good player but I hate his attitude - and I'm an Ospreys fanKnowsit17 wrote:PenfroPete wrote:Jeez - and we used to think Mike Phillips was slow and will someone please shut Dan Bighead up, you stupid feicing 2@
Who wouldn't give Fotty a talking to today? Nice to see someone taking the initiative.

Good break from Biggar, but there was a knock on before hand, so it comes to nothing.

Pete - it highlights his immaturity. He's been told off about it before. Anyway, he's kicking for pointage. Superb kick.

Ospreys coming back into this now.
Liam Williams has stood out for the Scarlets for me as well.

Shane definitely past his sell-out date, would have scored that one if still at his best.

Controversial call - Nige blew up Lamont as offside, but he wasn't...or if he was, it was very very close. Penalty to the O's, and now Biggar going for points. He nails it despite the noisy locals.

To be honest if Priestland and Rhys Thomas have great games then that's good for Wales.

OH YES it's a try....don't see how the locals can boo that decision. Lucky the Scarlets aren't getting pinged for blocking players in the build up.
Missed conversion - awkward corner, but it's game on!

Bishop has taken a knock to his head/neck by the looks. Hope he's all right. Scarlets penalty anyway. Wellies on, Priestland at FB I think as Williams is off.
Penalty missed by Priestland 16 - 14.
Scarlets on the attack now. Phil John breaks, but a Tipuric tackle saves the O's.

Why didn't Phil John just sidestep around the remaining defenders?

ooh Tommy! Naughty high tackle on Wellies, but he's just returning the favour after Wellies got binned for dumping him last month

Nige losing his rag with the front rowers. Ospreys under pressure, and Davies fluffs the pass. Adam Jones injured....that will NOT be good news for Wales if it's serious...

Owens and Manu on for Rhys and Thomas before we can do the scrum again. Thankfully AJ seems OK, he's staying on anyway.

FFS, even Scrum V spelling it Stoddard now. Which is it, a T or a D at the end. Minds made up please

North not having a great game, very little impetus with ball in hand.
Fotty of course having a mare, hopefully just a one-off.

Penalty to the O's, Morgan does a good kick to the corner for attacking position. Come on Ospreys...another penalty to them after a scrum. they go for the corner again. The O's could still win this, or at least get a LBP. Five minutes.
