Thanks for reading and listening - especially those of you in far-off sunny places around the world. We hope we gave you a feel of a dark and chilly day in Swansea enlivened by a full-blooded derby.

The Welsh regions are back in action on New Year's Day when the Dragons take on the Blues at Rodney Parade fresh from their win at Cardiff Arms Park on Boxing Day.

That match is live on Scrum V on BBC Two Wales and online from 14:00 GMT on Thursday, 1 January.

Then the Scarlets and Ospreys do it all again at Parc y Scarlets on Saturday, 3 January. You can listen to that live on BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Cymru, as well as online with kick-off at 17:05 GMT.

Until then, so long and - as we say in these parts - Blwyddyn Newydd Dda.

Former Wales captain Emyr Lewis

Ex-international Emyr Lewis says: "The weather in the first half was atrocious for playing rugby.

"It wasn't a very good spectacle for the fans. You want to show them an exciting brand of rugby but we didn't have that this afternoon.

"Scarlets demolished Ospreys' scrum and I'm sure the other sides in the league will have seen that and they will target Ospreys there from now on."

I wonder what impact the injuries will have on next Saturday's match.

Scarlets will be desperate to get Wales hooker Ken Owens back into action after Emyr Phillips picked up a nasty-looking arm injury late in the game today.

And fly-half Rhys Priestland will be another concern.

For the Ospreys another injury to the ever-unlucky Eli Walker will be a major worry. If the wing had as much luck as he has talent then he unquestionable would be a Wales international by now.

Nerys Owen tweets: "Think we need to find a pair of props before next week's game #ospreys"

Rhydian Thomas writes: "Good game and closer than expected. Appreciate a half-decent referee next time though (I'm available, and am cheap)."

Rebecca Williams says: "The hope of winning had utterly killed me, but we can take them next week #Scarlets"

Andrew Priestley adds: "That was a great derby match! Two very evenly matched teams playing at full throttle, fantastic physicality shown from both sides."

Wow, that was a real cliff-hanger as the Scarlets turned tradition on its head with a dominant scrum display, but it was not enough to claim a second win at the Liberty Stadium.

Ospreys did not manage a point in the second half, but move back to the top of the Pro 12 - but they have to face the Scarlets away next Saturday. Don't expect it to be any less tense.

"It was well fought from Scarlets. It was just a typical derby.

"We said it would be a whitewash before the game, but it certainly wasn't that. On to next week."

Clock is red. Ospreys clinch it - only just as Rhys Webb wallops the ball into the crowd.

But the Scarlets mess it up in midfield and Dan Biggar hacks the ball down to the Scarlets 22 where it's taken into touch by a defender. Less than a minute now and it looks like the Ospreys will hang on.

Asked whether Ospreys deserve to win, Garin Jenkins says: "They've had a couple of decisions go for them at the contact area, but I suppose overall they have worked hard for this."

Scarlets try to play out of their own 22 and the ball goes into touch off an Ospreys foot on half-way. Less than two minutes to go.

Kirby Myhill takes his place.

But they knock the ball on and the Scarlets will get a chance to get out of their own territory. The clock is stopped with less than three-and-a-half minutes remaining

Four minutes to go. Ospreys go on a rampaging rolling maul deep into the Scarlets 22.

You're a globetrotting lot...

Paul Bowen tweets us: "Keeping up to date with the rugby on the BBC website, with rubbish internet in a dusty hot room on the outskirts of Dubai".

Catrin Lisa is even further away with some noisy birds, though not ospreys: "One positive about these screaming Cockatoos is that I'm up watching the #ospreysVscarlets game from Sydney. Come on the Ospreys!!"

Liam Aubrey: "Reading the live text from the Mosel valley, hoping the ospreys can hold on!!!"

Martin Sloman: "Following the commentary on the web site. More of this kind of intensity week in week out would be great for the Welsh national teams!"

Julie Moseley: "Watching Ospreys/Scarlets from my home in Singapore, 3:00am already, go head the O's."

But it comes to nothing as Emyr Phillips is isolated and the Ospreys pounce for a turnover by James King.

Great meandering run by Steffan Hughes sets up an attack for the visitors.

And a penalty to the Ospreys at the scrummage. Big relief for the home team. But then Dan Biggar misses touch with his penalty clearance.

And the new scrum-half's kick leads to a knock on by Aisea Natoga after a great turnover in the Scarlets 22. Fine attacking platform for the visitors now. A penalty would give them the lead.

Brett has emailed us from Lanzarote: "Keeping fingers crossed for an Ospreys win....it is certainly a close one! Seasons greetings to all in Wales."

I bet it's warmer over there, Brett!
