Alun Wyn Jones and Morgan Morris deservedly dominated the headlines after the Ospreys’ derby win over the Dragons, with Jack Walsh commanding plenty of column inches, as well, albeit for reasons he may not have wanted.
Jones and Morris were outstanding in their side’s 37-18 success, while Walsh is still recovering from the buffeting he took at the hands of certain opposition players who were on a mission to put him under pressure. He ended up being roughed up via heavy-duty and illegal hits from Lloyd Fairbrother, Ross Moriarty and Sio Tomkinson and left the field looking more than a shade dazed on 43 minutes.
Keiran Williams, Sam Parry, Nicky Smith and Dan Lydiate were among others who shone up their reputations in the derby at the Swansea.com Stadium.
