Ok, so this is it.
Depending on how Cardiff fare against Leinster this game could require Ospreys to do what they very rarely do in a season: get a 4 try bonus point.
Ospreys are fielding a first team with quality throughout and some good solid names on the replacement bench as well. Henson is still out (surprise, surprise!0 with his ligament injury and Ryan Jones is also missing from action.
Gregor Townsend, however, will be looking to rain on the Ospreys parade. It will be his last game, but it will also be the Borders last game as well before they are dibanded.
They are not going to take this lying down.
They want to leave the Magners League with a bang, with something for the fans.
This will not be an easy job.
