At this stage of the Magners League season, it is all about delivering a winning brand of rugby when it counts and that will be Edinburgh’s collective mindset heading into Friday evening’s crucial clash against Scarlets (26 March, kick off 7.30pm).
Even though the team from west Wales have an ineffectual record in EH12, Edinburgh realise that there cannot be any room for mistakes and will be aiming for a repeat of the bonus point triumph over Ospreys rather than the Dragons performance served up in early November. Be part of the drama by calling 0131 346 5180 and watch another epic Scots-Welsh clash, although hopefully this one will have a different outcome to the one experienced in Cardiff during the RBS 6 Nations.
