Ospreys Head Coach, Allen Clarke, said:

“The next five games is an important period for us as a club, with European fixtures and big derby matches ahead. Whist challenging it is particularly exciting for the players, staff and no doubt our supporters.

“The performance and result against Zebre was satisfying but there is an inherent desire to keep improving as individuals & as a team.  Our focus has been on marginal improvements, the 'one percenters' of our game that define success so we constantly deliver to the best of our ability."
