0:02:03 > 0:02:08eyes on. Yes. Justin Tipuric is a knowledgeable rugby man and has got
0:02:08 > 0:02:14great talent. The fact he has been made captain again shows the
0:02:14 > 0:02:19pedigree he has. Also, you have the experience of Jonathan Thomas.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23Disappointed he was missed out of the World Cup, but he would use his
0:02:23 > 0:02:30experience to develop the players around him and make sure that the
0:02:30 > 0:02:35Ospreys get off to a winning start. There are also some impressive
0:02:35 > 0:02:45backs playing tonight. Someone who knows a thing or two about that is

0:55:33 > 0:55:39was apparent. Scott Johnson is alongside us. He punched the air
0:55:39 > 0:55:47with delight. The players are coming off, satisfied. Ian Evans
0:55:47 > 0:55:52has played well. Looking good. has been pretty easy for them. The
0:55:52 > 0:55:58looked good in the contact area. They scored some great tries.
0:55:58 > 0:56:03Second half, more of the same? think so. Leinster are not offering
0:56:03 > 0:56:13much and don't know where they're going. Expect the same pressure in
0:56:13 > 0:56:19
0:56:19 > 0:56:29the second half. Les banter from The new look Ospreys have started
0:56:29 > 0:56:34
0:56:34 > 0:56:41with a bang. Rhys Webb finishing Dan Biggar knocked over the
0:56:41 > 0:56:51conversion at to widen the gap with a penalty. Hanno Dirksen, third
0:56:51 > 0:56:52
0:56:52 > 0:57:02time lucky as the barged over. Let's look at the scoreboard. An
0:57:02 > 0:57:09
0:57:09 > 0:57:14It has been an emphatic first half performance. An ideal start.
0:57:14 > 0:57:19Fantastic. Reminiscent of a lot of what we saw in the Six Nations last
0:57:19 > 0:57:24year, youngsters coming into the side playing with free flowing
0:57:24 > 0:57:27rugby. These players look special. I know it is early on in the season
0:57:27 > 0:57:33and opposition is not strong but they are showing the their
0:57:33 > 0:57:37credentials. Some fantastic rugby, great continuity. It ended up in a
0:57:37 > 0:57:42deserved 27 points lead. And it could not have been a better start.
0:57:43 > 0:57:47A great flowing move and Rhys Webb in the corner. Yes, they were quite
0:57:47 > 0:57:55patient defensively. But when they got the ball, great turnover ball,
0:57:55 > 0:58:00a lot in the first half. Rhys Webb, he does very well to get away. The
0:58:00 > 0:58:04ability to get the ball two passes away and the ability to offload the
0:58:04 > 0:58:09ball in contact. The support play is good. Looking to get the pass
0:58:09 > 0:58:14away. Rhys Webb has started and finished it. Great play by the
0:58:14 > 0:58:19scrum-half. A fantastic first half. He has done everything that was
0:58:19 > 0:58:25asked of him. Everyone has contributed. A star -- a special
0:58:25 > 0:58:30site. A number of stand-up performances. Two players, the
0:58:30 > 0:58:35centres. Bishop and the youngster Ashley Beck. Ashley Beck has showed
0:58:35 > 0:58:40promise for the last couple of years but has not have gained time.
0:58:40 > 0:58:45The support play is good. He has the running ability, to step around
0:58:45 > 0:58:50people and keep the ball alive and offload tackles. And alongside him,
0:58:50 > 0:58:57Andrew Bishop. The offloading in the tackle. He can commit to people
0:58:57 > 0:59:01and get the ball away. A lovely pass. It takes two players out in
0:59:01 > 0:59:05gets the ball away. We know they are strong and powerful. Especially
0:59:05 > 0:59:10Andrew Bishop, very direct when he needs to be but to show more
0:59:10 > 0:59:16football than we have seen. Talking of strong and powerful, the left-
0:59:16 > 0:59:22winger, Hanno Dirksen, he was determined to get over.
0:59:22 > 0:59:27Exceptionally physical. The first opportunities he had, ball in hand,
0:59:27 > 0:59:32he looked like going direct. He is powerful and stays on his feet.
0:59:32 > 0:59:39When he gets the opportunity, he is almost there. This was fantastic
0:59:39 > 0:59:43play. Everyone saw had directed was. He goes low and slides in. The
0:59:43 > 0:59:50rioting in his game, a great finish. With little room, two slight as low
0:59:50 > 0:59:56as he did. You do not see that often enough. That got him the try.
0:59:56 > 1:00:03And briefly, Justin Tipuric going over, someone you know personally
1:00:03 > 1:00:09and to has come on brilliantly. he is from my village. He has shown
1:00:09 > 1:00:13promise from a young age. He has grown and grown as a player. That
1:00:13 > 1:00:20move lasted for 2.5 minutes. They kept going, kept going, Rhys Webb
1:00:20 > 1:00:26had the vision to put the ball over. You have to have support runners.
1:00:26 > 1:00:36Justin Tipuric works from start to finish, as does Tom Smith, John
1:00:36 > 1:00:37
1:00:37 > 1:00:43Thomas as well. Players like that The second half is approaching.
1:00:43 > 1:00:50Stay tuned. There is plenty of sport across BBC Wales this weekend.
1:00:50 > 1:01:00The countdown has begun. Wales have arrived in the land of the Long

1:01:22 > 1:01:47
1:01:47 > 1:01:57We can pop down to the touchline now. Much has been made about this
1:01:57 > 1:02:08
1:02:08 > 1:02:14new era. What can be paying public expectancy on the field? We want to
1:02:14 > 1:02:18represent the region. Tonight is showing that is what we do. What we
1:02:18 > 1:02:28saw in the first part is what fans can expect for the rest of the
1:02:28 > 1:02:30
1:02:30 > 1:02:37season? A yes. -- yes. We are really excited and we have got a
1:02:37 > 1:02:42young crew. No foreigners on their tonight. We are walking the walk.
1:02:42 > 1:02:49What about off the field? There is a real excitement because these
1:02:49 > 1:02:59young fellas we want to be here. There is a good feeling around the
1:02:59 > 1:03:07
1:03:07 > 1:03:17camp. We have really tried to bring them home to what they represent.
1:03:17 > 1:03:23DDC the shorts tonight? I did. Very good. -- did you see. The PRO12 was
1:03:23 > 1:03:30launched in Dublin last week. We went along to talk to the other
1:03:30 > 1:03:40coaches and captains about their hopes for this season. The first
1:03:40 > 1:03:41
1:03:41 > 1:03:49six games for us will be crucial. Everyone wants to be in the top
1:03:49 > 1:03:58four. We know it is going to be a tough year, but we are excited.
1:03:58 > 1:04:08is a very challenging start to the season. I am really excited to see
1:04:08 > 1:04:13
1:04:13 > 1:04:19how the new young players get on. We want to finish in the top four
1:04:19 > 1:04:28and hopefully be there for the party at the end of the season.
1:04:28 > 1:04:35want to be successful and bring in talented players. We have done the
1:04:35 > 1:04:42latter. It is important that we kick on from last season. We played
1:04:42 > 1:04:49some good rugby, but we have to do better. If we can do that then who
1:04:50 > 1:04:55knows. Which of the regions do you think is best equipped to cope with
1:04:55 > 1:04:59this period where a lot of the players are away at the World Cup?
1:04:59 > 1:05:03I think we are looking at them tonight. A lot of them have played
1:05:03 > 1:05:08regional rugby. Many of them played regular rugby towards the end of
1:05:08 > 1:05:13last season. Coupled with the experience we have seen with people
1:05:13 > 1:05:17like Jonathan Thomas, there is a lot of quality there. They
1:05:17 > 1:05:22certainly look, from what we have seen in the first half, as if they
1:05:22 > 1:05:28are capable of doing it. The other regions have to step up. They will
1:05:28 > 1:05:33be depleted because of the international calls, but the
1:05:33 > 1:05:43Ospreys seemed better suited. Scarlet and Dragons had a good
1:05:43 > 1:05:45
1:05:45 > 1:05:55season last time. Can they do better? What we saw from both of
1:05:55 > 1:05:57
1:05:57 > 1:06:07them was the style of rugby that we all like. There's a great spirit, a
1:06:07 > 1:06:11
1:06:11 > 1:06:21lot of local players and I think that will inspire them. Time now to
