Jones is looking for the Ospreys to move forward

"Our first-half performance was a lot better than expected and it gives a lot to move forward on and build on," Jones told BBC Wales Sport.

"We want to play a game of rugby and Munster are always a difficult side to play against and they took a lot of the play away.

"They don't score many points, but they don't concede a lot of points either."

Jones also expressed his delight with lock Ian Gough and scrum-half Mike Phillips who made their first starts for the Liberty Stadium outfit.

He added: "I was absolutely delighted with Ian and Mike. I thought they made a huge contribution to the game."

And Gough, who joined from the Dragons over the summer, said: "It was pretty intensive out there at times and the ball was getting killed a lot.

"But if we can play as intense as we can, put the scores on the board and play attractive rugby.

"We've got some huge games coming up and its up to me to go into training now and groove everything in."
