Ospreys coach praises spirit after gutsy Heineken Cup win over Treviso

Ospreys backs coach Gruff Rees was delighted with his team's bonus point from their Heineken Cup opener against Treviso - but far from happy with aspects of their performance in the 38-17 victory.

Composure

Ospreys captain Alun Wyn Jones added that he was happy with the way his side kept their composure towards the end of the game when they were chasing a bonus point. "We are pretty pleased with the performance - still a bit to work on. We have got to be able to think a bit quicker and not play so wide too early," he said. "We can be pleased with the end result and the most pleasing thing for me was the composure we showed in the last minute, minute and a half. "In the past you would have seen us tighten up in that situation but we realise that these pool games will come down to the last minute."
