Re: ospreys players leaving
Are the Ospreys in a good position to cover all those losses or will there be significant transfer dealing to get new players in?

Re: ospreys players leaving
As an outside looking in I would guess Bowe is the only major loss there.
Never rated Fussell even when at Dave with us.
Parker well he's only bit part player now isn't he, Walker likewise.
Hibbard starts more than Bennett despite doubts over hit fitness or abiltiy to keep out of the pie shop.

So Fussell really advanced his career by going to the Ospreys then. My guess is he'll be playing premiership rugby next season.

Might well end up a squad player at Wasps if they are forced to cash in on some of their more pacey assets.

True Sam. There seems to be a growing welsh contingent heading that way.

There's also a growing contingent monitoring Christian Wade's return from injury and the contract situation around Wallace the young full back and centre Elliot Daly so Wasps could be in the market.

That's my info too. He'd have to play centre at Munster though, otherwise he'd get less ball than Simon Geoghan.
Where would he fit in at Ulster? OK he replaces Danelli, but who would you drop from the 1st team, Payne, Gilroy or Trimble?

Tommy's going to Connacht.
Well it's the only one you missed out!
I'll miss him so much, but he did see all his contract with the O's through, and I don't think it was a bad move for his career.

Re: ospreys players leaving
Are we really taking Fussell back - if so WHY.
Never rated him when he was with us anyway, give me a back 3 of Harries Thomas and Chavange anyday.
Would alos hope we promote another youngster from the academy than take the backward step of Fussell returning.

Re: ospreys players leaving
Rumour has it that Harris, Thomas and Chav are out of contract. So keeping them may not be on the cards.
Brew has been linked with Perpignan, which I hope he turns down as he is our best player.
Fussell is a good signing. He was good before he left and at the Ospreys at times he was one of the more exciting players with ball in hand. I think him and Brew would make for a good balance.
I would imagine the Ospreys will now promote from inhouse as the academy is up and running.
I feel for the Ospreys a little because they put such a good team together but never got the success it merited. They did make 2 fatal mistakes though. They bought some ego players who rarely turned up for them once they got selected and secondly the failed to get a credible coaching team in place who could handle all the big names. Lyn Jones, Humprehys, Holley & Johnson just didnt have the experience for that kind of calibre roster.
Had they gone out and got someone like Robbie Deans things may have been so different.

Re: ospreys players leaving
One thing is for sure though. The academy players will need to be conditioned to play top flight rugby at a earlier age which to a degree is improving already.
That has its own benefits and I'm looking forward to seeing the Wales U20 as I am expecting a more physical young side out than previous years (which is always a big weakness for age grade sides). The only negative is that I believe the lack of physicality probably helped develop ball skills as we couldnt use a Physical based gameplan.

Not sure if it's me but I think the emphasis on getting bigger has impacted hugely on our actual ball skills and attacking ability. Support play, game management and contact offloading seems to be disappearing from our younger players! (I do watch a lot of SH rugby so maybe I'm being over critical in comparing our players to theirs)...

Oh dear,
Is it just me or does it seem like the O's will be in big trouble next year.
Their HC campaign was disastrous this year,
Who will play FB? - No BD, Byrne or Fussell. Prydie is the only option there and he hasnt exactly showed his class at regional level yet.
Biggar at 10, Bishop at 13, Walker, Prydie and a diminishing SW in the back 3...I surprised Beck wants to stay.
On the plus side - at least you wont have Johnson anymore...and the Blues might get Bennett

True, but at least we should be able to cobble together a decent backline with Tovey at 10.
I havent been impressed with the O's backs this season at all (Webb and Beck being the exception), they are relying too much on their forwards, and this season, their front row in particular.
It hasnt worked for them, because their Backrow is weaker than it once was - JT isn't an 8, Smith is not a great 6, Tipuric is good, but thats about it -
Their replacements have been awful, Stowers has yet to do anything in an Ospreys shirt.
They have missed AWJ in the second row, and injuries to Ryan and I.Evans have left them with weakness in the second row and on the bench.
Adam Jones has been off form for a lot of the season and has only just started to dominate again, the have lost Mitchell so have little depth at THP and Paul James has missed most of the season. Hibbard is BADLY off form and Bennett hasnt been given a chance.
Now they are losing more depth in their squad so I can't see them coming close to the HC next season.
They are lucky that they have managed to hold onto A.Jones and AWJ, because without them they would be in serious trouble.

If you look at the youngster coming through i don't actually think Johnson has done as bad a job as some seem to think. He is head of development after all, the coaches are Holley and Humphries.

None of this has really be confirmed either way, but if this all turns out to be true then:
Fussell -
Pretty much been a disaster since he signed for the Ospreys, lapse after lapse in defense has proved very costly, most Ospreys fans have no idea why he is picked most of the time. Glad he's going to be honest. As a fan he is the first name I look out for when I go to see games and I hope he isn't playing. He makes me nervous, his only asset is he is good with ball in hand and a bit of space. But it's a winter game and he has to catch the bloody thing first!
Davies - Probably the best full back we have, but well short of international standards, I would pick Prydie or even give Hanno Dirksen a chance there instead of picking him. Ross Jones is showing good form for Bridgend so maybe he will be given a run.
Parker - Good servant to the cause but has looked past it for a season or two now, only really plays and is useful for LV games. Will be good to get him off the wage bill. Fallen way down the pecking order sadly.
Bowe - class player, but do we really need a NWQ winger? We have Luke Morgan, Kristian Phillips, Tom Prydie, Eli Walker and Hanno Dirksen who all need experience, and if they are going to develop players need to be moved out. Class player but if we need to bring in foreign players we really need forwards not backs. Wales produce backs for fun.
Walker - Been injured for so long people have forgotten Niki is part of the squad, another Scottish winger that is really serving no purpose. Best to get shot of him to be honest.
O'Toole - Was signed as cover for the World Cup, but couldnt cut it at Glasgow so was never going to be a long term Ospreys signing, looks poor at Rabo Direct level.
Griffiths - I like him, but most Ospreys fans are thrilled he's going to the Scarlets, fantastic in the gym useless on the field. Was apparently given a £160k a year deal as 4 years ago he was considered to be the next Adam Jones, but he hasn't developed in the way we'd hoped and won't take less money. The Ospreys barely use him, and conversion to loose head for LV games against academy players has been a disaster. Reportedly spend most of his time out drinking and in Nandos, which doesnt help him.
Bennett - If you'd told me before the World Cup Bennett was leaving, then Id of been happy, but he has finally shown some form and is probably the best Ospreys hooker. Mefin Davies is 38 and can't play forever and Hibbard is a liability most of the time, so this is a loss for us. Sadly we dont need both Hibbard and Bennett and Bennett contract is the one thats finishing first.
Summary:
Not really overly worried at all by losing these players, we probably have better and more deserving players to take their place already within our academy. Bennett is my only worry, but maybe Hibbard starting and Davies off the bench will cover us for most games. We also have a promising young hooker called Scott Baldwin who will need a chance next season, so we will recover.

How was it a bad move for Bowe going to the Ospreys? he went from good player to world class whilst at the Ospreys.

Re: ospreys players leaving
I think the Os will be hit very hard by the departures of Shane and Bowe as none of the wingers waiting in the wings are anywhere close to them and players like Prydie and Phillips haven't exactly seemed like their about to fulfill their potential anytime soon. I think it might be a good move for the O's to get rid of Bennett now while other clubs are interested as I never know if the WC form was just a flash in the pan and he'll revert to his last 3 years of form again. Though Hibberts really going to have to step up.
Looking at the O's team in comparison to previous years and they seem to have lost a lot of the fearsome lineup they had in their backrow (JT's lost form, Ryan is played a lot at lock, and then you have Stowers who still needs to impress and Smith, Tupric - doesn't really compare) their backs without Bowe and Shane looks pretty toothless except for Webb and Beck and therein lies the problem they are just relying on their front 5 to win them games.

Actually Bowe was the record try scorer in the ML while he was with a poorly performing Ulster side.

Well he said in an interview that moving to the Ospreys improved him immensely and if he stayed in Ulster he wouldn't have.

As an Irish fan the move the the Ospreys made Bowe better.
Sometimes its good to have a clearout of players. I hope Munster do the same with some of their squad.

Although i do think Bowe should go back to Ulster or go to France. Munster wouldn't use him well.

Even with 19 players away on international duty, we can still beat the Munster first team at home!
We lost a raft of internationals last season yet we achieved the same in Europe and are still second in the league. Most of the Ospreys fans are happy a lot of these players are leaving. Only Bowe, Shane Williams and Bennett warrants a mention. Most Ospreys fans are not even too concerned about losing Adam Jones either because he is always away on Wales duty or injured.

No he wasn't, he reached that record after he'd been with the O's. He made player of the ML season in 2009/2010.

Re: ospreys players leaving
What?! I hope you're wrong, Fussell is a muppet. He was one of Turners favourites and I'm still struggling to see why Ospreys ever wanted him? Hopefully Harries, Chavvy and few others keep the guy out of the team should he return.
Shame about Parker, I still think he is your best 13. Bishop has been awful since he was last capped for Wales. You have a good team, poor 10 and some very promising academy players that you need to make good use of. Your all speaking of Prydie but I read that he was going to Wasps? I am honestly baffled as to why Kris Phillips is not a starter in your team. He has excelled at every level I have seen him play.

Also in 2007/2008 Cari. And you're wrong about the try scoring record; he first gained that record at Ulster; bear in mind there weren't anywhere near as many games in the era before he came on the scene.

Sorry Cari- that came across a bit dickish and pedantic. I didn't mean to be, it's just sometimes the tone gets lost when you're typing
I think Bowe did improve at Ospreys, he got more time on the ball and pushed out of his comfort zone. I think he developed into a more rounded player. But people forget how good he was when he was at Ulster the season before he left. I mean, he had a sensational year; always played much better than the team he was in. He nearly had a hattrick in the Six Nations that year- he would have had it if it wasn't for Marcus Horan glory hunting out on the wing!

I think Fussell was initially signed as backup but has unfortunately become first choice.
Prydie is on loan to Wasps he will be back at the Ospreys next year.
Kris Phillips defence is bad and he is weak in contact although i can't see how Eli Walker is any better.
Next year will be all about the youngsters. Don't expect any silverware.

Well obviously since Fussell, Parker, Davies, Walker, Bowe are probably all leaving it will be even more about the youngsters next year.

The only player i have heard of that is leaving the Ospreys and heading to the Dragons is Duncan Jones. I don't think Fussell is heading back.
