Bonus point win for Connacht at the Dragons tonight. Edinburgh need to dig really deep over coming weeks

Strong squad that and I expect a win, despite sharing some of the reservations about who's starting vs on the bench. Berghan I really like what I've seen so far and I daresay we'll see more of him next year.

If we come out with a point or two we will have done well! Anything more then I will be delighted given last performance against Cardiff when barn door and banjo were mentioned! Good to see Beard back from off the naughty step - what did he do to suffer the ignominy of having Strauss selected before him?

We have to win this. Never mind Top 4, which would be a big and unlikely bonus, we have to get top 6. To do that, forget everyone else, we have to finish above Connacht and Scarlets. The best way to do that is to beat them! Of course it won't be easy, but we did it last season and they're not exactly on a roll.

Not strictly true - the only team we have to finish above is Glasgow and we don't necessarily have to be in the top 6.

But yes, a win tonight and a top 4/6 finish in the league would be nice !

It's been on BBC2 Scotland on Sky's planner for days, but BBC Scotland didn't seem to know...

Well at least we lasted 5 mins before conceding a soft try! It could have been 20 seconds!!! Long night ahead?

Could well be. Forwards have looked to be on top so far though.

We are getting done up - we should have had three scrum penalties but have had one
