Edinburgh put to the sword by seven-try Ulster in 43-14 pummelling
Ulster got some good continuity going in their passing play right from the start, and it was no surprise when they opened the scoring after just three minutes. Hooker John Andrew and scrum-half John Cooney combined before the latter put Stewart Moore through for the try, and Cooney converted.
It was only a matter of time before Ulster got the second try, and it came midway through the half. A penalty to touch was followed by a solid lineout throw, and Andrew got on the end of the drive to barge his way over the line. Cooney slipped as he made contact with his conversion attempt, but the failure to add the two points seemed no more than academic even at that stage of the game.
