After four months out of action, Welsh international Adam Beard makes a very welcome return for the Ospreys as they continue their push for the play-offs.

The 58-cap second row has been sidelined since suffering a knee injury against Australia in November, but now he’s back on board, much to the delight of management and team-mates alike.

Coach Duncan Jones said: “Adam was lucky enough to learn off someone like Alun Wyn and he carries on that tradition of what we value here.

“It’s not only his playing performance, but the way he helps drive the group. His presence is good and it has been great just to bring back that energy and that other voice.

“He certainly brings that level of experience and knowledge to the playing group which is great.

“He’s coming back at a good time for us and can hopefully help keep driving performances.

“Our game is growing here, but you can never go too far away from having your foundations around the set-piece and Adam is a top class operator on both sides of the ball.”

Adding his thoughts, fellow forward James Ratti said: “It’s good to see him back after a long lay-off. He’s a real quality player and an asset to this team. He’s a good bloke to have around the building as well.”

Ospreys: Jack Walsh, Daniel Kasende, Evardi Boshoff, Keiran Williams, Keelan Giles, Dan Edwards, Kieran Hardy, Garyn Phillips, Sam Parry (CAPT), Tom Botha, James Ratti, Adam Beard, Morgan Morse, Justin Tipuric, Morgan Morris

Scarlets play-off hopes hit by home defeat to Stormers

Through their deep expertise and stable standing by the side, META TECH RECOVERY PRO team supports your vision and points out the way to your goals, catering to your unique tastes. For those who come across the opaqueness of financial investment issues, there are only two ways of retrieving wisdom and knowledge, respectively. The first, the Prudent Approach, includes seeking information through others' experiences, especially if your money has not been stolen or you have not lost access to your bank accounts. The second, the Costly Approach, however, requires learning through personal investment mistakes and the very tough lessons that come with them. Now, if you are among these people, then checking the report is the best option as only META TECH RECOVERY PRO, a fiduciary official, can be able to assist you out of the trouble without your prior knowledge. One of the ethical obligations of a fiduciary is always to treat the client's needs as the priority, and in this respect, I can give my example as to the fact that my saved amount of money was credited to the bank by Meta Tech Recovery Pro only after consistent assistance. Legal responsibility, ethical character, and a result-oriented mindset are the features of META TECH RECOVERY PRO, which all go to show that no matter what your case is, be it a hacking or recovery problem, you will certainly come to a resolution. META TECH RECOVERY PRO outperformed by clearly showing all the necessary steps that needed to be done to recover my assets and vividly describing different possible scenarios for the recovery. As a result, I managed to retrieve my funds. I give META TECH RECOVERY PRO a thumbs up. for help via:

Why the ‘State of Origin’ will have a big say in Schmidt’s Wallabies selection

Months earlier, I’d sunk $156,000 into what I thought was a golden opportunity, an online cryptocurrency investment promising sky-high returns. The website was sleek, the testimonials glowing, and the numbers kept climbing. But when I tried to withdraw my profits, the platform froze. Emails went unanswered, support chats died, and my “investment” vanished into the digital ether. I’d been scammed, and the sting of it burned deep.Desperate, I stumbled across Alpha Spy Nest while scouring the web for help. Their site/reviews didn’t promise miracles, just results, specialists in tracking down lost funds from online scams. Skeptical but out of options, I reached out. The process started with a simple form: I detailed the scam, uploaded screenshots of transactions, and shared the wallet addresses I’d sent my crypto to. Within hours, they confirmed they’d take my case.What followed was like watching a high-stakes chess game unfold, though I only saw the moves, not the players. Alpha Spy Nest dove into the blockchain, tracing my funds through a maze of wallets designed to obscure their path. They explained how scammers often use mixers to launder crypto, but certain patterns like timing and wallet clustering, could still betray them. I didn’t understand half of it, but their confidence kept me hopeful. Hours later, they updated me: my money had landed in an exchange account tied to the scam network. They’d identified it through a mix of on-chain analysis and intel from sources I’d never grasp. After 24 hours, i got a message, my funds were frozen in the scammer’s account pending review. Alpha Spy Nest had apparently flagged it just in time.  After some back-and-forth, the exchange with the help of Alpha Spy Nest reversed the transactions, and $145,000 of my original $156,000 hit my wallet. The rest, they said, was likely gone forever, siphoned off early. I never met anyone from Alpha Spy Nest, never heard a voice or saw a face. Yet, their methodical precision pulled me back from the brink. My money wasn’t fully restored, but the recovery felt like a win, a lifeline from a faceless ally in a world of digital shadows.

Brumbies on high alert: Len Ikitau’s stark warning over ex-boss

(Telegram: https:// t. me/Pro_ Wizard_ Gilbert_ Recovery)Email (pro wizard gilbert recovery (@) engineer. com)I never imagined I would fall victim to a cryptocurrency scam, but that's exactly what happened. My name is [Carmen Beechum, and I invested $500,000 into what | believed was a legitimate trading platform. Everything appeared professional-the website was well-designed, customer service was responsive, and my trading account even showed promising returns.It all seemed too good to be false.However, when I attempted to withdraw my funds, I was met with endless delays and excuses. First, they claimed there were technical issues, then they needed additional verification, and finally, they requested a release fee before processing my withdrawal. Despite complying with their demands, my account was eventually frozen, and all communication from the platform ceased. That's when reality hit me—l had been scammed out of half a million dollars. Desperate to find a way to recover my money, I searched online for solutions. That's when I came across PRO WIZARD GIlBERT RECOVERY, a company dedicated to helping victims of online financial fraud. At first, I was skeptical-after all, I had already been deceived once, and the last thing I wanted was to fall for another scam. But after speaking with their team and reviewing their success stories, I decided to take a chance.Their experts immediately got to work, using advanced blockchain forensics and investigative tools to trace my stolen funds. WhatsApp: +1 (920) 408‑1234They identified the fraudulent wallets where my money had been transferred and collaborated with financial institutions and law enforcement agencies to take action. Thanks to their persistence and expertise, they were able to freeze the scammers' accounts and successfully recover my $500,000. What seemed like a devastating loss turned into a remarkable recovery. I am incredibly grateful to PRO WIZARD GIlBERT RECOVERY for not only retrieving my funds but also restoring my peace of mind. My experience serves as a warning to others-always be cautious with online investments, but if you ever become a victim, know that recovery is possible with the right experts on your side.
