Ospreys Forwards Coach, Jonathan Humphreys, commented:

"Any game against Munster is a tough one and this weekend will be no different. We've been involved in some really tight games against them over the years and there generally doesn't tend to be more than one score in it. We're expecting them to come over fully loaded with their internationals and they'll definitely be targeting this one so we're going to have to be at our best. There's no doubt about that.

"We've got a good record in the PRO12 this season, we've only lost the one game, but we're not kidding ourselves about where we are. We know that we've got to continue improving our game, working hard and find that clinical edge.

"That's not to take anything away from this group of players who have done so well. They've worked hard, they are playing for the cause and they've been getting results. This will be the toughest test for them yet, no doubt about it given the circumstances of the game, but they have shown already that they are prepared to front up and wear the shirt with pride. They are going to have to do that again on Saturday night, and hopefully, they'll be able to send our supporters home happy."
