Scots made to pay for costly mistakes

The Scotsman's Gareth Black reports as Edinburgh's euro hopes take a dive against Castres.

"There goes another year where Edinburgh have knocked themselves out of the Heineken Cup before the half-way mark in the pool stages, but what really, really frustrates Rob Moffat, the coach, is that he knows this was yet another in the season's already long catalogue of results that got away.

"...As with Glasgow against Toulouse the previous night, the issue was the set piece. For the team in the west, the problem had been the scrums, but for Edinburgh it was the lineout that misfired badly, particularly when Scott Murray was on the field and picking the ball out of the air with all the enthusiasm of a player 15 years younger than he really is before being forced off by a calf injury."
