We are delighted to confirm that 28 cap Wales international loose head Duncan Jones will captain the Ospreys next season

Comment from Head Coach, Lyn Jones:

"We decided some time ago that Duncan was the man to lead us into what will be a big season for the Ospreys.  He led Wales with distinction in Argentina and has already proven to be a fine Ospreys Captain when he stepped up last season.  He leads by example both on and off the field, knows how to read a game, has sound judgement and has respect from throughout the squad” 

Duncan Jones added:

“It is an honour to be asked to captain the Ospreys, although I am fortunate to have already stood in during what was quite a difficult time last year following Barry’s injury.  We have a good mix of youth and experience and I will get a lot of help as we have decision makers throughout the side”

“The region has shown its ambition with strong signings and with the boys returning from long term injury I am sure supporters will see a strong Ospreys side next season.  Last year we worked hard as a group and things started to come together towards the end of the year, but we will enter next season in a confident frame of mind and I am looking forward to the challenges that each of the tournaments will present”
