Yes, I know the Ospreys are at home and should be named first...but it's my thread so
Yes I know they're called the Ospreys but AWJ is a very, very special player so

O's are 0-2 and the Once And Future Champions are 1-1. While the home side have their talismanic captain the visitors have lost Seaman on the wing (hamstring) and replace him with Titman. Lord Stafford is injured and replaced at 12 by Sam Johnson. Titman is much faster and more elusive than Seaman. Also, I think Seaman has been defending too narrow and was targeted by Cardiff in the ten minutes when they got their hands on the ball last week. Stafford was superb defensively last week: 100% tackle success with 13/13. If Johnson doesn't last the full 80 it will be interesting if Miotti comes on at 10 and Jordan moves in to 12. Jordan looked very good against cardiff but he is regarded as a 12 who can cover 10, so it would be interesting to see him play 12.

I like both front fives and think it could be very However, Glasgow's replacements; Kebble-Turner-Berghan are all Scotland internationals, Du Preez and Big Man Jessie looked very good when they came on against Cardiff. I keep saying people looked good against Cardiff: is that because they were good OR because they were playing Cardiff? I think our second string front five will be too strong for your replacements. Also, if the game is getting quiet...Batman is on the bench.

I'm feeling confident about this. So straight down the bookies and bet on a home BP win. Double it with Kwarteng sacked by Tuesday and you'll soon be avoiding paying 45% tax.

Cagey start down in Swansea

Both sides showing flashes without really executing

Game stopped for a HI to The Ospreys 8, who gets his head on the wrong side tackling Fraser Brown. Thst is his game over

Ospreys go coast to coast but it looks like a knock on

No try

Ospreys score first, great try in the corner from Giles

Anscombe kicks a good converdion from the corner

7-0 Ospreys

Coast to coast from Glasgow from a dropped pass

Johnson scored under the post

And it gets called back for a knock on!

Glasgow get penalised and Anscombe kicks the pen

10-0 Ospreys

That was a turnaround

Glasgow get a pen at the other end on the point of HT

10-3 Ospreys at HT

Glasgow start second half well but errors are costing them

Another coach killer of a try when Glasgow cough up the ball and Giles the speedster scores

18-3 Ospreys

Game slipping away from Glasgow now, our errors are killing us

Another pen for Ospreys takes them 3 scores clear

20-3 Ospreys

It's becomming a bit painful to watch!

And we seem to have folded completely in the last quarter

Ospreys keep the foot to the throat and pick up the BP try

Very dissapointing performance from Glasgow we are still very inconsistent

Then Glasgow score 2 tries in the last 5 mins to make the score respectable

Bit late unfortunately

Well done Ospreys, better winners than the score suggested

I'm feeling confident about this. So straight down the bookies and bet on a home BP win. Double it with Kwarteng sacked by Tuesday and you'll soon be avoiding paying 45% tax.


Well, here's hoping the second part comes in too.
