Thought that was a quick penalty try but the scrum was moving forward straight and steady.

The shove did them straight away, real power. After that he gave the try a bit quick I thought. Not complaining...

Solid enoough, thought Brandbury looked jaded, maybe could have been rested for next week. Looking forward to next week now.

Barclay was staggeringly good given how long he’s been out for.
Hunter Hill is some unit these days but what happened to Toolis - early replacement?

Great to see a big performance from Barclay.
Big results all round. BP win, treviso and scarlets lose.

Re: 1872 Cup Champions
Yeah, injury in first half. Didnt look anything dramatic but who knows. Barclay was straight to top form, Scott looked a bit off top sharpness but also wasnt given any spaceARM wrote:Barclay was staggeringly good given how long he’s been out for.

Looking forward to the match at Murrayfield next week. Think Edinburgh can turn over Munster.

Yep, the number of times he was in to the Irish runner before they could even get moving was very impressive. Great to see him go the full (sort of) 80.ARM wrote:Barclay was staggeringly good given how long he’s been out for.

Big, fat Matt Scott didn't manage anything too flash but did a lot of hard years, mostly into brick walls, as the commentators said some of those collisions will really test how far over his concussion issues he is.

Scarlets and Treviso lost too so very decent night. Would really like to see them get third place at least

Not really sure where to put this, but Kings were hovering within touching distance of Ulster before a yellow and a red for the kings in the same moment! Oh well, still a good weekend for Edinburgh, all things considered.

Re: 1872 Cup Champions
5 new signings for Edinburgh today.
Number 3 looks like a belated return to form for Simon Webster.

I really hope one of those is Hamish Watson resigning.General Zod wrote:5 new signings for Edinburgh today.

Re: 1872 Cup Champions
Not seen too much of him but seems to like bashing into people. I guess Edinburgh will be losing Barclay, Ritchie, Watson, Bradbury, Mata (at least) for a large chunk of the season so makes sense, even though there's a lot of backrows in the squad already.
