[QUOTE="RC, post: 160072"] Webby, you've made many very good points there. Ospreys are a young franchise and have not had to pull together very often to get those necesary wins. We haven't had the experience of how to close a big game - even if we do have the potential. I'm not happy with our front row. I never have been. Granted we've got great receivers in the lineout but Huw Bennet is **** at throwing the ball in so there's no point of those boys being there when we've only got a success ratio of 75%. And yes, we were under the kosh for the entrie game against Worcester. However, i ask you not to underestimate Bishop. As long as Parker isn't playing, then we've got a centre who is very strong and a solid defender and very rarely does a match go by where he doesn't cause the other team trouble. The only problem is he hardly ever gets a chance to prove himself against the other bigboys because Lyn "The Dumbass" Jones always choses Sonny Boy! But yes, ultimately, we shall not be considered worthy until we actually clout a heavyweight and prove ourselves as one first. Otherwise we're gonna be QF's at best and no one will acknowledge the danger we possess...at least not until next time around. And i'm sick of saying, "There's always next time." [/QUOTE]
