Newport Gwent Dragons are strengthened by the return of their captain Colin Charvis for this evening's clash with the Ospreys at Rodney Parade.
Lock Luke Charteris, centre Rhodri Gomer-Davies and full-back Kevin Morgan will also return and will be a welcome boost for the Dragons after they were beaten 41-8 by Magners League Champions Leinster last weekend.

Head Coach Paul Turner is looking for his side to bounce back after the disappointment of the result in Dublin: "It is a vital game for us this evening, specifically having not got anything out of our game against Leinster at the weekend, and I am looking for a huge performance. The Ospreys will also be disappointed after the weekend and it's important to have the experience of senior players back with the team going into this evening's game."

Dragons: Kevin Morgan, Gareth Wyatt, Rhodri Gomer Davies, Phillip Dollman, Richard Fussell, Ceri Sweeney, Wayne Evans, Adam Black, Ben Daly, Lee Harrison, Adam Jones, Luke Charteris, Colin Charvis (captain), Richard Parks, Michael Owen

Replacements: Steve Jones, Gethin Robinson, Hugh Gustafson, Andy Hall, Lewis Evans, James Harris, Paul Emerick, Jason Tovey, Alex Walker
