Re: Ospreys v Edinburgh, 21 September
I suppose rotation was inevitable. Geoff Cross wasn't going to sit on the bench all season, he's an international prop, plus that's some serious beef to come off the bench.RDW_Scotland wrote:

Happy with the rest of the team. Good continuity in the backs, and it's great to see Kennedy and Leonard getting regular game time. I'm also pleased for Basilia. He's needed a run of two or three games to make his case, particularly with Du Preez coming on board.

Re: Ospreys v Edinburgh, 21 September
Leonard is a very talented young player, looking forward to watching him.
Must say I am a little surprised that the front row that many of you had been discussing so favourably has been changed. Do you think this will have a big influence?

Lutui is a beast of a Tongan and cross is a seasoned international, so you'd hope not. They're coming in fresh though where as ford and nel would be completely match sharp.

Re: Ospreys v Edinburgh, 21 September
If we start with a slightly more match ready front row of Bevington, Hibbard and Jones they will likely feel the strain.
Our back five will be an interesting selection, likely Ian Evans and James King with a backrow of Ryan jones, Bearman and Lewis.
The backline will most likely not change from last weeks Tito, Biggar, Walker, Beck, Bishop, John and Fussell.
I am not happy with Fussell and would rather see him at wing with young Ross Jones at fullback but the coaches are adamant of playing him at 15.

Agreed Maes.
Does anyone have any sense as to how far away Rennie is from coming back? Tragic not to see him on team sheets.

There's some good flankers available to the scots at the moment. Everyone will be interested to see Barclays debut in the Derby..!

In other news, someone Tweeted the Edinburgh page to ask if Finn Russell was being loaned out to Edinburgh – they gave a firm no in response! Looks like that’s not happening then.

Very strong front 5 that - gonna be a massive test of our new found forward grunt. Exactly why I would have stuck with Ford and Nel for this game!

Very strong Hairspray's pack. Big test for the MFL. Think the O's will be too strong.

Yup, with our injury list I can't see us getting anything from the game against the Hairspreys
New coach, injuries, last years form, away from home - I'd say a decent performance and keeping the score to within 10-12 points would be something the Burgh can come home with and not feel they have let anyone down!

Sadly, I agree Tattie. But given all you have said will they be able, in Solomon's words, to earn the opposition's respect? That's what seems to be lacking in the culture at the Reading Room. From a totally objective Weegie point of view.

Re: Ospreys v Edinburgh, 21 September
Ryan Jones hasn't recovered in time for the edinburgh match unfortunately. But we are still managing to field a very healthy looking team...
TANDY NAMES TEAM TO FACE EDINBURGH ON SATURDAY AT THE LIBERTY STADIUM
The Ospreys team to play Edinburgh at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday 21st September, KO 6.30pm, is as follows:
15 Richard Fussell
14 Jeff Hassler
13 Andrew Bishop
12 Ashley Beck
11 Eli Walker
10 Dan Biggar
9 Tito Tebaldi
1 Duncan Jones
2 Richard Hibbard

17 Ryan Bevington
18 Joe Rees
19 Tyler Ardron
20 Justin Tipuric
21 Tom Grabham
22 Matthew Morgan
23 Aisea Natoga
Jeff Hassler makes his first Ospreys start
Aisea Natoga will make his Ospreys debut if he comes off the bench
Head Coach Steve Tandy said:
“It’s great to be back at the Liberty this weekend, we’re all looking forward to being home again after two tough games at the road. Treviso and Leinster are among the two most difficult places to go in the PRO12 so to have come through a tough start to the season unbeaten, with six points and two positive performances, is a pleasing start.
“Over the next few weeks we need to kick on and raise a higher level again. We’ve got a few work-on’s from last weekend, some areas of the performance that need to improve, but it’s been a good few days in training preparing for the game and there’s a real buzz about the place.
“Some of the younger boys who have been involved over the last few weeks deserve a pat on the back for the job they’ve done. They’ve set the standard and helped to ensure that we’re in a much better position than we were this time last season.
“We’ve got the five Lions boys back in the team this weekend, which will naturally give everybody a boost. They’ve been fantastic since reporting back for duty and it’s good to be able to have them all available for selection. I’m sure that the fans will be looking forward to welcoming them home on Saturday and looking forward to seeing them back in the black shirt, representing the cause with the passion and commitment we’ve come to expect from the boys.”
The following players were unavailable for selection through injury:
Dmitri Arhip – Achilles
Hanno Dirksen – Knee
Tom Habberfield – Ankle
Dafydd Howells - Shoulder
Ryan Jones - Shoulder

Strong team indead. Beast of a pack, and a back row that maybe inexperienced but had held its own during the opening two games. Looking forward to seeing Allen at 8. Hopefully get to see Tips and debutant Natogo come off the bench too.
Hassler (21) is a one of the trio of Canadian internationlas we've signed. Scored in the friendly v Worcester.

Definitely a few surprise selections there. Backrow in particular where I think most Ospreys fans would have expected Bearman to start over Morgan Allen. Good to see Captain AWJ get a start alongside the other Lions players, but a shame Ryan Jones couldn't make the cut.
Hassler on the wing will be interesting. He looked good pre season and seems to be settling at his new club well.

Right got my bets on - Visser to score anytime (7/4) and Edinburgh to win with a 9 points head start, also 7/4.
Pretty good odds I think!
You get 5/7 for Edinburgh to win with a 19 point head start - I'd like to think we won't lose by more than 19 points....!

Brilliant start for the O's. Hassler scores and Biggar converts. 7-0 at 4 minutes.

Oof. Looks like Sam Lewis had a nasty head clash with an Edinburgh player. Trouble is, he goes in head first and he's copped a hip to the head this time. Tips limbering up to replace him by the looks.

Lewis up and about, and Tips takes a seat. He might be a bit goggle eyed but he's carrying on. Hope he doesn't regret that. Tips is not a bad replacement.
Agree RDW. I always think they should come off straight away anyway, and then come back on later if at all. I don't know why they do it this way around.

I thought Edinburgh were going to get something then, but they seemed to get a bit panicky. Hassler is looking quite a decent signing so far...and he's eye candy
Hibbard misses a flat pass.

Must be said I do like the band they've got at the Liberty. Brass version of yellow submarine is awesome
Re: Ospreys v Edinburgh, 21 September
Yeah they're playing Queen now by the sounds. I wonder if they do requests...
Biggar going for a penalty that'll take him to 978 in the league.
10-0 at 15 minutes.

Re: Ospreys v Edinburgh, 21 September
Can we go back to the old version of scrums now? Or fix the new ones? Seen over 10 games of rugby since rules changed and have yet to see any improvement.
Nice kick Fife
10-0, feels like last season atm

Another three points for the O's.
13-0 at 18 minutes.
Edinburgh need to watch their discipline is all. They're giving away daft penalties at the moment and Biggar will just try kicking them every time.

...and now it's the O's who are slipping up. They need to tighten things up a bit. They're being a sloppy now.
