Ospreys facing Scrum half crisis
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_u ... 313236.stm
Mike Phillips has picked up an injury and is out for about 3 months.
He has been a driving force for the Ospreys and will be a big blow to them.

Also there other SH Nutbrown is looking at a 10 week injury lay off after picking up an injury on Saturday.
I wouldn't say they had a crisis especially when you look at the amount of injuries tigers have.
Now that's a crisis.

Beat me to it - I would have said that we're short of nearly every position!

Re: Ospreys facing Scrum half crisis
and as Ospreys play their second team against other second teams in the Magners each week it shouldn't matter until they play again in the HC.

Re: Ospreys facing Scrum half crisis
can we lend them Ellis for some game time?
Re: Ospreys facing Scrum half crisis
We don't want him - he's a liability. We are going to have to rely on Liam Davies, who joined us from Brive in the Summer. That pie-scoffer Goode describe him thus: "He’s got the best pass I have ever been on the end of,” said Goode. “Liam is an excellent prospect and it’s a loss to us.”Snorbins wrote:can we lend them Ellis for some game time?
We're not sure though - after all, he used to be a Turk...
Alternatively, it's Shane to Scrum-half or Rhodri Wells, who played quite well at Welford Road last season.
All is not yet lost - after all, we got through half of last season without Phillips and Nutbrown. Another scrum-half injury is serious, though - we've got four out with long term problems at the moment.
Re: Ospreys facing Scrum half crisis
samlet, do not dis our pie-eater. we look forward your resting of the A team and wrapping them up in cotton wool till the next HC fortnight.
Re: Ospreys facing Scrum half crisis
Just wondering how short the Sprays are? They have cancelled their game against Camb Uni next week.
