Ospreys Quotes

Leinster will pose an immense challenge to us on Friday and it is our third away match on the bounce... Naturally we are disappointed to have lost to The Ospreys especially as we had chances to win. However, we have to put that defeat behind us. We know there are areas that need a vast improvement and we are aiming to put those areas right on Friday night. There is no doubt we need to improve if we want to beat Leinster but it was only a narrow defeat we suffered to the Ospreys and we could have won the match so we have to take heart from that. Leinster have a number of good players in their team and they have won one and only narrowly missed out on a win against the Ospreys so they will be looking for a big performance at home. We will aim to get into them early on and keep the pressure on them. - Paul Turner

Jon's resumed full training and should be fit and available for the Ospreys. - Mark Davies
