Edinburgh sign centre Charlie McCaig from Exeter and loosehead Ben White from Melrose. Can't say that I've seen much of either, and White is an odd one if the youngsters are all that they're cracked up to be, but we were probably a player light in both positions for next year, so some SQ competition is fine.

Blatant forward pass for last bulls try, yes it was clear and obvious

Edinburgh are going to run out of numbers 2nd half

I’m on holiday in the Highlands so haven’t seen any of this. It sounds like the usual terrible start to a second half after a promising first half.

Hard to know what to think of that. Attack looked quite good for the most part, but it seemed for too easy for Bulls to score when they needed to. Also some unnecessary drops which just invited pressure.

Don't agree with you on Patterson. Played his part. I did, though, think there was a difference in the backfield coverage of the respective back three's. Edinburgh kept trying little chips that went straight to their opposite numbers, Bulls kept finding grass. Graham didn't seem as full of confidence as normal either, maybe caused by the knock he took.

Mostly not bad I thought but they did largely go to the front.
