[QUOTE="Sir Speedy, post: 167066"] Scarlets 17 - 12 Ospreys. Not a bad win for Llanelli against a better side in terms of depth. Peel and Jones worked well together in a game where Llanelli scored the only tries (coming from Nathan Brew and Gavin Thomas). Hook scored all of the Ospreys points while Stephen Jones missed an early penalty. The Ospreys had one oppurtunity where a break by one of their forwards sent Justin Marshall into space, only for Alun Wyn Jones, who received the ball to be pulled down inches from the line. The Scarlets had a similar chance where Regan King was home and free to the line; although he dropped the pass which would have sealed the game for Llanelli. Mike Phillips showed how unstable he is when he got sent off early on, and continuously harrassed Peel around the rucks despite the ball not being out, even though Nigel Owens seemed to not think it all that important. Justin Marshall seemed to spark the Ospreys when he came on, while the pack in front of him flattened the Llanelli forwards. In particular, Ryan Jones who returned from a 6 month injury, broke the gainline everytime he had the ball; a big boost for Wales to have such a player fit! [/QUOTE]
