Ospreys medical update

Ian Gough - Suffered a back spasm in training but is expected to be available for selection next weekend.

Joe Rees - Is being reintegrated back into the group as he continues his rehabilitation following neck surgery. He is building up his scrum work in training and is on course for potential selection in early April.

Ryan Jones - Further investigation has confirmed that a fracture to the shoulder blade is stable and it is just a case of waiting for it to heal. Providing there are no problems, he has a realistic chance of being back playing before the end of the season.

Eli Walker - Is suffering from a back injury picked up while away during the Six Nations period. A decision will be made on the best course of treatment for the problem over the next week or so following consultation with specialists.

Andrew Bishop - Is recovering well following surgery on a disc problem in his back. If he continues with his current rate of progress, the medical team are not ruling out the prospect of him returning before the end of the season.

Tom Smith - Remains sidelined with an ongoing chronic groin issue
