Sale fan myself and Sunday is a MASSIVE game if we want to estbalish ourselves as a top European side. A win over the champs would do wonders for our confidence and belief.

yes, been a massive Rugby Union fan since i was very littile, my number 1 sport ahead of football by a mile
supported Neath through the doldrums of European rugby right up until the formation of the Ospreys and been a season ticket holder for around 15 years of my life
Ospreys are my undoubted favourite team, we have the potential to wn, no doubt in that with the current squad we have, we also have a lot of depth
away to Leicester last week, first half we lacked discipline conceded too many penalties and too be fair were lucky to be 12-3 down at half time, second half was a much even performance between the two sides, and i honestly felt we coulda won in the last few minutes, which has been the utter reality of the past few seasons, coulda beaten for instance, Gloucester away last season and also Stade Francais away the season before, we have seemingly lacked a tiny bit of intelligence and discipline whenj it has come to the big away days in Europe, hopefully we can kick on on the weekend and gain a home victory against Perpignan
obviously as a fan of the Ospreys and with the money at our disposal and the players we have brought in over the last 2-3 years, i do expect big things, we have performed well so far in the Magners League up until we faced Quins a few weeks ago, and we seemingly at the minute have hit a bit of a stumbling block the past few weeks and have played well off the form we gave showed at the beginning of the season.
Hopefully we can rectify this, and without too many major injuries to our squad we can sustain a challenge in all competitions and especially not get knocked out to a team like Saracens last season, no disrespect to them, but we didnt turn up that day, and we had beat them comfortably 30-3 just 2 weeks previous in the EDF Semi Finals
so hopefully, an optimistic season is on the cards

i also have to say about Sale, you havent hit the heights at the minute, sturggled a bit in the Guiness Premiership, but a fantastic bonus point away win at Clermont Auvergne could be the kickstart you guys need
all the best for the season ahead

I support Seven Sisters RFC (Local team) and the Ospreys.
I think Osprets will win it this year, even though they lost to the Tigers.

Been a neath rfc fan for around 20 years of my life followed every single home game from 1989-2000 without missing a game, then i started playing rugby on a saturday so started missing a few games, now im a season ticket holder jointly between the ospreys and swansea city fc, i still go to as many neath rfc games as i can.
I dont think the ospreys will win the heineken cup this year (I hope im wrong) because we still lack a winning mentality when playing in the bigger games, we tend to dominate games but then we fuck it up at vital moments.
COMING SOON
JORDANA LOUISE
