HEINEKEN CUP
We feel hurt and cheated and will let them know about it on Sunday

Gavin Henson says the Ospreys want revenge over Leicester in Sunday's Heineken Cup tie after unfair tactics in last week's 30-12 Tigers win.
The Ospreys led 12-6 at half-time in Welford Road before a fight back.
"The comeback was due to their cheating in and around the ruck. They got out of difficult areas and scored tries from it," Henson told BBC Sport Wales.
"They got away with it, but we're aware of it now. We feel hurt and cheated and will let them know about it on Sunday."
Henson's typically controversial opinions found backing from Ospreys coach Lyn Jones, who witnessed the Tigers blast through the centre of his side's ruck defence for tries after Welsh players were cleared out.

"Leicester came out with different tactics and a different mind set in the second half," said Jones.
"Perhaps the launderette people can shrink our jerseys back to size because they got pulled out of all shape and size in those 40 minutes.
"It was very disappointing. We've all done it as players and had it done to us, and in the good old days you would have taken the law into your own hands.
"Now, if it repeatedly happens - as it did at Welford Road - you expect the referee to take action and show cards.
"I'm not saying it's why we lost last week, but the tactics led to a few scores.
"We have to turn up on Sunday feeling hard done by and come out determined to put it right.
There's always an expectation when an English side come down to play in Wales that they have a divine right to win irrespective of how they play

Dallaglio's quotes after defeat
"We must take no prisoners, take the game to Leicester and try to drag them into an open, expansive game."
What is it with this moron, he is always blaming everyone else for his own inadequacies. When is he going to realise that he will never achieve anything, or become anything else other than at best average player, if he doesn't look himself in the mirror and look closer to home for reasons he is normally on the losing side.
