Ospreys v Edinburgh (10-09-2011, 18:30 BST)

[TRF_Cymro]

Liberty Stadium, Swansea (Saturday, 10 September 2011, 6:30pm BST)

Ref: David Wilkinson (IRFU)

Joe Bearman has recovered from a stomach injury and could make his Ospreys debut. Duncan Jones and Mefin Davies are hoping to be fit. The Ospreys will be without wing Nikki Walker, hooker Richard Hibbard and tight-head Aaron Jarvis.

Edinburgh have only beaten the Welsh region twice in the league since the advent of regional rugby in 2003.

Edinburgh were beaten 38-15 at home by Cardiff Blues in their opening Pro12 fixture.

vBookie Ospreys - Edinburgh

Waste yo' money gents!!!! vBookie is here again!!!

Mistake from Fussell. Edinburgh leading by 7.

Rhys Webb creates space for himself, breaks through the line (woeful defence though) and scores. Biggar converts. 7-7.

Silly mistake. Penalty to Edinburgh and converted. 7-10. Fussell not playing well at all!

Biggar scores a drop goal but ref says no. It looked close to me. Why didn't the ref go upstairs to check?

Ospreys have only got themselves to blame. Lack of discipline and cohesion. It's 13 all at half-time.

Tipuric must feel a right wally losing the ball over the line!

Tipuric must feel a right wally losing the ball over the line!

Not a bad strike rate for a backrow, normally.
Biggar off the post, 13-13

Tipuric must feel a right wally losing the ball over the line!

It was a shame because it was a good run. I think the wally factor would've been worse if he had dropped the ball in celebrating before grounding it but here he just lost control of it.

Yellow card for dangerous play from Evans and fully deserved. Frustrating. He's knocked over the penalty. All square 19-19. And Biggar missed an easy kick...

Yes! What a try from Tipuric at the death. He's made up for that dropped ball now. Fantastic ending to a really ordinary game.

Very harsh on Edinburgh, but what a great try from Tipuric at the end, broke the stalemate in the end!
