EDINBURGH head coach Richard Cockerill insists there is a lot more to come from his side after their bonus point victory over the Dragons on Friday night.
Edinburgh eventually won 35-18 at Myreside, but the game was in the balance until five minutes from time.
Cockerill’s men have now won two from two and he said:
“Obviously it is great to get the win, but I was disappointed with the errors we made and we must improve on that.
“The team spirit impressed me though.”
His opposite number Bernard Jackman said: “We were sluggish in defence at times and paid the penalty.”
The Welsh side got off to good start and in the tenth minute earned a penalty which stand-off Gavin Henson dispatched.
Henson then kicked a neat drop goal five minutes later to double the advantage.
However, it was not all positives for the Dragons and by the 17th minute they had lost scrum-half Charlie Davies and centre Sam Beard to injury.
