This must have been the first kick he's missed in years!
A try in both halves by winger Alex Cuthbert gives the Blues a much needed win and pushes into 7th position in the table with 10 points. Edinburgh on the other hand remain at the foot of the standings with just 1 win from 5 games to date. Some impressive bursts of play from both teams but it was the Blues who dominated both possession and also territory that allowed them push clear and to win the match by 17 points in the end. Edinburgh failed to clock any points at all in the second half and defended for most of the game. Thanks for staying tuned to us here at Ultimate Rugby, see you again soon!
Alex Cuthbert has been awarded MOM for this encounter with 2 lovely tries and almost a third which was denied by the TMO. Great game for the young winger
A beautiful set of play by Patchell who delays the pass inside to Cuthbert who darts for the line. TMO used to check grounding. Hat-trick denied as TMO states he was held up over the line.
Blues with a lineout on Edinburgh's 5 metre line. Its taken nicely and driven forward. Edinburgh with desperate defence force the blues to go wide.
Matthew Rees with a head down charge just inches from the line
We enter the final 10 minutes and the Blues have been awarded a penalty inside Edinburgh's 22 metre and they opt to kick for touch...
Superb try by the Blues! Playing the ball from inside their own 22 they manage to get the ball through a couple of hands. Halfpenny injects some pace into the ball and breaks the line. Just before he is taken down he feeds Warburton who then through quick hands delivers it to winger Cuthbert who has 20 metres to run before touching down between the sticks. Brilliant try!
The ball is sent back to Leonard who drills the ball upfield and play is brought up to the halfway mark
A knock on from each team with the first from the Blues see a scrum handed to Edinburgh
