Ospreys boss Steve Tandy is not disguising the impact Alun Wyn Jones’s likely return from injury will have on his team as they prepare to upset the odds in Saturday’s Guinness PRO12 semi-final at Thomond Park.

Ospreys 18 Munster 20: A last-gasp converted try from replacement CJ Stander saw Munster stun the Ospreys and make it two wins from two at the start of the new Guinness Pro 12 campaign.

Ospreys head coach Steve Tandy admits his side have enjoyed the better of their recent exchanges with Munster but he is taking nothing for granted ahead of Friday night’s RaboDirect PRO12 semi-final at the Liberty Stadium (7.35pm).

Ospreys openside Marty Holah has been cleared to play in Sunday’s Heineken Cup game against Munster at Thomond Park following a decision last night of the WRU Professional Disciplinary Panel to uphold his appeal against a two-week suspension.
