By Wilson Maina Mwangi

After not being selected for the British & Irish Lions, Darcy Graham demonstrated his capabilities by scoring three tries to help Edinburgh defeat Ulster 47-17 and secure a place in the play-offs.

Despite missing out on the Lions tour in Australia, the Scotland winger showed his talent during games. Regarding Graham not being picked, “The selection process is tough, and every four years, the Lions tour adds more pressure. Darcy has been in great shape with us and was also doing well for Scotland,” Edinburgh head coach Sean Everett said in a press statement.

“He is amazing with his footwork and how hard he runs. It may frustrate him, but he is not too old to improve,” Everett said.

The end of the season marked the finish of a run that saw Edinburgh face nine weeks of difficult matches. Everett noted that the European games had added to the difficulty for a long period.

“I am pleased that the boys managed to achieve the result, especially during the second half.”

Having scored twice, Player of the Match Magnus Bradbury commended the team's performance in a press statement.

“I feel incredible about it. Everyone on the crew fulfilled their responsibilities,” said Bradbury in a press statement. Bradbury also highlighted that the movie was excellent when viewed as a whole.

It was an emotional night for Jamie Ritchie as he prepared to play his last home game before moving to Perpignan. Jamie Ritchie explained that there are no easy words to express our feelings when saying goodbye.

“Here, the people I share my life with are like my family, so it’s really emotional,” said Ritchie in a press statement.

Graham's excellent performance put critics in their place and revealed that he is still one of the biggest threats to Scotland in attack.
