Wales and Ospreys captain Ryan Jones has rediscovered his form and his confidence it seems - the powerful No.8, speaking following Saturday's titanic battle with Leicester, says the Welsh region are a side to be feared, not a side who should fear others.
Jones, after a difficult 2008/09 season, has enjoyed a great season personally so far. Fitter, stronger and seemlingly more motivated, the Wales captain was once again a key player for his region on Saturday as they edged out a win against traditional European giants Leicester.
The Ospreys now face a tricky Heineken Cup quarter-final trip to Biarritz in April but, while the Top 14 team have been in impressive, Jones believes the good form being shown by his team makes them a team that nobody will fancy taking on.
"We are becoming a team that no-one is going to look forward to playing," said Jones to the Western Mail.
"I don't think there is any reason for us to fear anyone.
"We are a team that's in a better place than we have been over the years."
