Hmm. Hopefully he can do more in better weather.

Always like to see Lyttle in the league games. Gilroy approaching last hurrah territory but still reasonably good value as a squad option.

I haven't kept up with fitness concerns over the two but I remain somewhat perplexed at Sexton and, particularly, Moxham's inclusions last week. Happy to be proven wrong but I don't see much to suggest either will prove a long term bet. Perhaps Gilory's absent defence wouldn't have been much better though.

I think Sexton was shafted starting last week and not this week. Anyway he's yesterday's man, time to move on.

Tend to disagree. I would rather play against the very best at home rather than an away trip to wales.

Why did I think it was at home!?

Yeah and I accept he's done. We move on.

Thought we were away. Either way I would prefer to play at home against the very best.

Moxham hasn't really shown much either (yet)

You might but I don't think he did

Gilly worries me now. Is moxham that far behind, after all last year Lowry and Doagh really stepped up last year when we needed them. sexton all hype no trousers. He should have been sent to South Africa instead of McIlroy

Looking forward to Frank son of BR hopefully getting a few minutes, looks big and abrasive. French D2 is as physical a league as they come, hoping he's a late bloomer. I wouldn't put it past Munster missing out on talent.

Very easy so far

Two tries to the good

LUKE MARSHALL IS ON FIRE!!!!!
He looks like he is absolutely loving his rugby again.

Totally agree, reminds us that Hume, Postlewaite, Moore have a competition on their hands!

This is looking like a comeback season for Luke Marshall, and he was excellent this evening. At the risk of annoying some on this board (and taking account the lack of quality shown by the Ospreys) I thought Sam Carter had a good game. Unfortunate to lose two out-halves in quick succession. Hopefully Jake Flannery will get through the last Emerging Ireland game and be ready in case we need him against the Lions next week.

Ospreys best player was their number 8, Morgan Morris. Keelan Giles on the left wing looked dangerous, and their out-half Jack Walsh showed some great feet, but otherwise they were pretty poor.
