Scarlets vs Ospreys - THE BIG DERBY TEAMS ANNOUNCED and live match-day thread
First topic message reminder :
RaboDirect Pro12: Scarlets v Ospreys
Venue: Parc y Scarlets, LlanelliDate: Friday, 21 September
Kick-off: 19:05 BST
TEAMS ANNOUNCED
Scarlets team v Ospreys Friday 21st September 2012, Parc y Scarlets kick-off 7.05pm:
15 Liam Williams, 14 George North, 13 Jonathan Davies, 12 Scott Williams, 11 Andy Fenby, 10 Rhys Priestland, 9 Tavis Knoyle, 1 Phil John, 2 Ken Owens, 3 Deacon Manu, 4 George Earle, 5 Richard Kelly, 6 Aaron Shingler, 7 Josh Turnbull, 8 Rob McCusker (capt).
Replacements:
16 Matthew Rees, 17 Peter Edwards, 18 Samson Lee, 19 Sione Timani, 20 Johnathan Edwards, 21 Gareth Davies, 22 Aled Thomas, 23 Gareth Maule.
Ospreys15 Richard Fussell 14 Hanno Dirksen 13 Tom Isaacs 12 Andrew Bishop 11 Tom Grabham 10 Dan Biggar 9 Kahn Fotuali'i 1 Duncan Jones 2 Richard Hibbard 3 Aaron Jarvis 4 Alun Wyn Jones (Capt) 5 Ian Evans 6 George Stowers 7 Justin Tipuric 8 Joe Bearman
REPLACEMENTS
16 Scott Baldwin 17 Ryan Bevington 18 Joe Rees 19 Jonathan Thomas 20 Ryan Jones 21 Rhys Webb 22 Matthew Morgan 23 Jonathan Spratt
Ospreys coach Steve Tandy is hoping his players use the occasion of Friday's Welsh derby at Scarlets to put a dismal start to the season behind them.
But Tandy hopes the 21 September clash with unbeaten west Wales rivals Scarlets will provide a turning point.
"We've always performed in derbies, we're a pretty proud bunch and I know that they'll be hurting," said Tandy.
"So there's probably no better game for us than going down to the Scarlets and hopfully prove a point... really show that we are still a decent team, and get those basic areas of our game right.
An opening defeat away at Treviso - Ospreys' first loss to an Italian side - was followed by a home loss to Ulster and then another humbling at their Liberty Stadium home by Glasgow.
Scarlets' start to the season, in contrast to Ospreys, has been impressive and the Parc y Scarlets side sit unbeaten at the top of the Pro12 table with victories over Leinster, Glasgow and Connacht.
PS - THERE MAY BE A TRIBUTE TO NEVIN, GRAHAM AND NOEL SPENCE. I am unsure of the details but have heard that the crowd and announcer may sing Stand Up for the Ulstermen before the Scarlets/Ospreys game.
Could anyone with more/definate information comment please?

Priestland falls foul of the Commentators Curse. The penalty kick goes well wide just as the commentator says he's gained confidence...

He plays fine, just look at how the many tries the Scarlets backs score. His place kicking is abysmal though.
Although that one was pretty good.
Im just glad Wales have Halfpenny. Liam Williams should be tried out as a placekicker (he has offered apparently)

True they need another kicker, especially when you're in the crunch European games.
Richard Hibbards hair and tattoo's look terrible. Plus it looks as if he's wearing eye-liner. Really worried for that guy atm.

Scarlets need to sort out their catching.

Another fight!
Duncan Jones pished off again. Wonder who'll get a man in the bin first...?

Ha yeah! They could do with being sat on the naughty step together.
Oh hang on...it could be Ianto again!
That was a beautiful penalty from Biggar, mind.

Great play by Scott Williams, fair play. Fenby's possibly got a try...looked like he got it down.

Explosive stuff from the red backs there. Reminds me a bit of the Allblacks when they get turnover ball

Scot Williams is awesome at the moment. Roberts has some playing to do.

Was it a try? Looked a bit forward from that angle.
Scott Williams ran around half the O's.

Controversial decision. Commentators claiming dangerous tackle, should've been a penalty try.

Nice play from the Scarlets. I'm a neutral but appreciate the rugby they can play.
Anyone know how Charteris is playing in France? I'm think Wales should reunite him with AWJ in 2nd row.

???
Smashes him in the head to stop a try.
Should be a penalty try and definitely a yellow card after 3 high tackles in 20minutes.
Isn't this what the new TMO laws are supposed to be about?!

The more they play it, the more it looks like a swinging arm that got fenby in the chops so he knocked it forward...

I agree with the commentators should of been a try and a yellow card for Kahn.

Is the TMO allowed to say no, lost forward but in my opinion it was a cheap shot pen try?

Well Phill Steele has just said he has talked to the main man and insists that Dereck Bevan COULD have given a penalty try.

Aye, the forwards are putting the work in, getting nearer to the try line and the back are fluffing it.

It was like that last year though when Webb and Beck weren't playing.
