Henson to learn his Six Nations fate today

THE Ospreys are ready to mount a vigorous defence of their Wales Grand Slam star Gavin Henson when he faces a potential season-defining disciplinary hearing today.

Henson has been summoned before a three-man panel, chaired by the Scottish Rugby Union's Rod McKenzie, in Glasgow.

He faces charges of elbowing Leicester prop Alex Moreno, and then aiming a kick at the same player, during an ill-tempered Heineken Cup clash between the Ospreys and Leicester in Swansea last Sunday.
