Injured in 1st half?
I missed a chunk of this. Was he on already and went off?

Looks like Molony at 6, Sheehan at 8 and Penny at 7, Dunne is at lock with Toner.

Unfair
Explain why
He's actually playing well. Why not explain your comment.

He’s not playing well. Yes his pass to Harry was good, but he has been messy at nearly all the rucks/mauls. His passing is slow and laboured and he is not controlling the pack on where they should go. Osborne in fairness did that in the first half

Both managed to fall over the ball at the back of a ruck

Edit: Though in fairness Dupont did something similar last weekend

HOS has been poor. Three errors at the base.

Yeah, was going to say. Has kicked two from our own half that landed with 5m - 7m of the opposition line.

Honestly thought that was harsh. Looked like Molony held on to it and O’Sullivan never actually picked it up. Might have missed it bouncing onto the ground in real time though.

Clarkson having a rough time of it at scrumtime. Not helped by a lot of poor handling out there.

Our scrum is getting minced. Little bit worrying if that continues. It’s definitely a potential way back into the game for Ospreys.

No HOS knocked it back into moloneys hands
