Nacewa braced for backlash

ISA NACEWA expects a huge backlash from Magners League front-runners The Ospreys at Liberty Stadium this evening (7.05pm).

The Welsh region is still in shock following a home defeat to Ulster on the opening day of the campaign, But Nacewa reckons shock turns automatically into threat, especially when a team is smarting from heavy criticism from its home supporters.

“No doubt,” he said, “The Ospreys will prove to be a stiff test coming, as it does, after losing our last game at home to Ulster. Like us, they have a proud record at home and I’m sure they’ll be determined to get back to winning ways, so we’ll need to be focused.”
