O'Brien: We'll keep on attack

29/10/2022

Angus O’Brien has backed Dragons to keep playing attacking rugby at high tempo as they prepare to face Zebre Parma at Rodney Parade.

O’Brien – who returned to Rodney Parade from the Scarlets this summer – is named at full back for the BKT United Rugby Championship encounter.

Zebre are yet to win a game this season and they will run into a Dragons side eager to achieve back-to-back bonus point victories.

O’Brien believes the mood of optimism in the present Dragons squad – and the ability to play a high tempo, fast-paced game – is in sharp contrast to the days when he left to join the Scarlets in 2018.

“It’s been great to come back, it has been a really good environment to come into,” said O’Brien, who can also operate at No.10.

“The mindset has changed. The team is more confident now, we are going out there and expecting to win, and I think that helps us a lot.

“There’s a lot of quality and depth in each position. That competition just adds to that competitive nature. Training has gone up a notch and you know you need to play well to stay in the team.

“It’s just a much more positive place now and that was personified during the game at the weekend, against Ospreys. We played some great attacking rugby, and our defence has been strong. To do at it home, it was great for the fans.”
