Edinburgh 50-33 Benetton: What the head coach said

Edinburgh head coach Sean Everitt: "We didn't get the win that we thought we'd get in the first half, so that suited us. We certainly were more accurate in our execution as far as our attack was concerned.

"I'm proud of the guys in the the way they put 50 points on against a good Treviso team. Disappointed in the fact that we didn't hold them out for longer periods when they were in our 22.

"But to score three tries into a gale-force wind like this, it's credit to the boys and the urgency that they showed on the pitch.

"What we can control is how we played and I was pleased how we played probably for the first 33 minutes. Probably got a little bit loose late in that first half.

"Could have probably got another try at the end there, but I'm not going to be too critical of that. A second-half performance into a wind like this and to walk away with a win and 50 points, I'm extremely happy.

"It was about holding on to the ball, defending well and forcing an error. We did have a dominant scrum. We knew that if we got penalties and were able to keep them in their 22, it would be very difficult for them to play.

"From there, what we were hoping for is to build scoreboard pressure. What that does is it stops them from keeping as much as they would like to, which means that they'd have to keep the ball in hand. But I thought we did well and obviously to get the 50 points is what puts a cherry on the cake."

On Jamie Ritchie: "He's really playing good rugby and he wears his heart on his sleeve. The way he's been playing is credit to his relentlessness in trying to become a regular in the Scottish jersey again. He always does well for his team, he's a proud Edinburgh man and thoroughly deserved his player of the match award.

"Gloucester beat Northampton today, so it's not going to be an easy game down there. We've been struggling away from home and it's time for us to build some consistency in winning away."
