    Based on injuries henshaw shouldn’t really have been involved really

    This is true. But does that mean Farrell should have been brought instead? He hasn't been selected at any stage over the last 4 seasons and it's really only the last 18 months that he's become a live option. That was when all the other lads were available for selection or not long from recovering from injury. Tom Farrell might get a chance funder Andy Farrell, but at least under Schmidt I don't think.he was ever a realistic option.

    Very poor to get turned over 5m from line there.

    Bundee is going to have a battle for the 12 jersey at this rate. Robb the best player on the pitch, though Farrell up there too in fairness.

    Clever by Blade, second wait before passing and caught them out. Needed three there.

    Ah they were good in the first half to be fair, really dominant in collisions.

    There's the Masterson of old. You couldn't knock a pool ball off the table in 2016 for fear of Eoghan Masterson lepping out from behind a door and pouncing on it.

    Like the ambition but think we should have taken three points. Lock up four match points.

    Fair, just worried that our scrum and maul seem to be going backwards.

    Excuses of callups and injuries starting to be wheeled out on premier sports so I'm daring to dream here.

    Welsh commentators on my stream whinging about the Ospreys being decimated by the World Cup and Connacht only losing two ... then go on to heavily imply that the reason Connacht won the Pro 14 in 2015/2016 was due to the World Cup as well. Classy.

    Connacht missing both first choice props, both first choice second rows, first choice 7, 10, 11, 12 and 15. Only losing two to the World Cup is half the story.

    Teams Connacht beat to win pro12 were back to full strength.

    The injuries excuse was a beaut, clearly clueless about Connacht's first choice players.

    Defence been very good today and generally this season. Ospreys have been going back the way before eventually kicking or making an error all game. Maul the only issue, amount of changes in pack go some way to explaining that.

    Not a headache.

    A happiness...

    For me I wouldn't change the team. Aki and carty to start on the bench

    Copeland and Gallagher in second row, Burke, Jonny Murphy and Kenny front row for much of second half. Ospreys not up to much but great to get away win when using that depth.

    Turn of phrase

    A rare away win in Wales, delighted with that
