Ospreys Premiership Select Head Coach, Dan Griffiths, said:

"While we haven't had the results we would have wanted in our first experience of the British and Irish Cup, it  has been immensely successful in terms of exposing young players to senior rugby and competition. We have been a very young side, the average age of our backs in some of the games was just 19 years old and to give these boys game time against professional players has been invaluable in the learning process.

"The home fixture against London Scottish was a tight affair, we scored two good tries and put some decent phases of rugby together. We'll be looking to learn from this experience, improve areas of our game and capitalise on the opportunities we create. Hopefully we can put in an 80 minute performance.
