“Dewi has picked the baton up in Jac’s absence and made it his own while Jac has been coming back into the squad.
“We’re really fortunate here [at Ospreys] to have two recent Welsh captains sitting in our midst. They are quality, whichever player is chosen at anytime will do a fantastic job, the boys are incredible.”

“He’s working hard and the feedback from the Welsh Rugby Union and our own camp is that he’s progressing well and we’re just playing that be ear now.
“It’s all positive at the moment.”
