We're neck and neck in the Magners League.

We've steamed through in the Heinekin, they were very unlucky not to qualify.

They just impressed in hammering their way into the EDF final, we went out at the pool stage.

Who is really the better team ?

We've got a week of hype and build up toward a HC quarter final this week...let's forget about them.

I'm not going to hassle with the Hoff.

But I think if we lose Friday, neutrals will say that they are.

Us, obviously mun.

Tough one though in all seriousness. I'd love to see the derby played with 2 full strength teams but I don't think it will happen (I'm being optimistic)

I fancy we could beat them down here, but we have an awful record in the Liberace stadium, so I think it really is neck and neck.

They had a real edge in the breakdown area today ( and against us @ Liberty). That's where they seem to concentrate. Lyn himself was good there. They are a good team.

Absolutely. And they were desperatley unlucky not to qualify for the HC QF's.

Imagine what they would be like with a half decent coach? I shudder to think.

The All Blacks are better than us cant say Ive lost any sleep over that,what the hell have the Ospreys being better/worse got to do with us beating Munster?

They are OUT and are of no concern to us untill we resume ML rugby-what a pointless post!!!

I don't agree SM, it meant a lot to us last year. The HC is on a different plane though.

okay let me put it this way

last year we were struggling in a sea of medeocrity,our hc was poor and so was the league , our only oulet was the edf cup

this year our team would have decimated last years team because of the improved coaching team

If i was asked edf or hc ...i know what my answer would be

remember edf is only between england and wales , i feel that english rugby is on the decline .. big time, and an edf between wales and ireland would challenge our 4 regions further that a bunch of has beens and never beens that are playing in the english league

ask youself

do you want to be a big fish in a small tank ...edf

or kings of the ocean .. as we will be after we win the hc this year

I agree, anyone who uses the 'micky mouse cup' excuse if the Ospreys win it is grasping at straws.

A fair percentage of posts on here are anti Ospreys rather than pro Scarlet, and now I ask a perfectly logical question (as I feel both sides are performing well) and you go to cry just cos we got Munster on Friday. If you don't want to get involved in my thread 'Move on' it's easy, don't feel you have to post, some people wanted to post a reply.

Does that mean all non-Munster related threads be closed ??

Again, if you don't like it, move-on.

Um. Forget about who is the best team us or you?

Concentrate every effort on seeing off Munster. Nothing else matters for you this week.

After that then there are the small matters of a game on April 17th and a race for the ML title. That should go some way to answering the question about who is best.

If the Scarlets win the HC then that that will be an astounding achievement worthy of huge respect from anyone with even a passing interest in rugby.

As an Ospreylian you will have my support in those matches to come.

Similarly I would hope that there will be many of you supporting us for a match at Twickenham on April 15th. Set against the HC of course its a second tier competition but one you were quick to embrace last season.

what's all this talk of "us" concentrating on friday nights game? all we've got to do is turn up and support the team on FRIDAY night, the players are the ones who have to concentrate on the game.

well done glove, you've managed to get people who are calling this a pointless thread, to comment on it, thus rendering their post pointless and make the topic last at least 2 pages long

I'm with you on this one, its a massive game for us and thats what we should be focusing on.
