We sent a not far off second team to Wasps, and won. For anyone who has followed Edinburgh for more than a couple of years, that is a remarkable achievement. Couldn't care how we did it, I'll just enjoy that fact.

Anyone know the situation with George Taylor? My eyes may have deceived me but I thought he might have come back on after his HIA wearing a headband but no sure about that.
Important that he's ok otherwise we might suddenly be a bit pushed in the centre with Dean and scott already out for a while.

Yeah the Challenge Cup for me isn't about performances it's about more players getting a run out. Going away and beating a full strength Wasps side is very impressive.

I hadn’t heard that Scott was out for an extended period, what the deal with him?

Scott-ribs. Think I saw a comment from Hodge a week or so back suggesting he might be out for "a few weeks".
Already been a fortnight though and be good if he was at least back in time for the home fixture against Glasgow.

The few seconds of highlights are now up.

Wasn't the Wasps try a bit dodgy? Looked like they broke through when a Wasps player was in the ruck, reached back to pick the ball up and went on the charge. I didn't think you could do that.

Looked dodgy at the time but no tmo at match so no review. Cant recall the rules re foot placement in relation to ball in ruck but one is definitely behind the ball when he picks it up.

Pity farndale got caught that would have been a peach of a try. Good to see movement and options before farndale got the ball as well
