**Edinburgh secured their first win of the season by beating Scarlets 6-3 in a bruising battle at Parc y Scarlets.** Played in torrential rain conditions were not inducive to quick, silky rugby and the match was largely contested at the scrum. In a game with no tries it was Edinburgh who managed to hold their nerve best, surviving a late onslaught from the 14-man hosts to win courtesy of six points from Jaco van der Walt’s boot. Last season’s Conference B table toppers stay in fifth but are now on six points with tonight’s opponents Scarlets fourth on the same number.
