EDINBURGH captain Jamie Ritchie is confident that the team can build on last weekend’s promising performance at Saracens when they face Castres on Saturday in their first home game in the Champions Cup for two years. Ritchie’s side lost 30-26 at the StoneX Stadium, but the 26-year-old is sure that they can quickly rectify the glitches in their game that proved costly.
“Overall, we’re pretty happy – it was a consistent enough performance for 80 minutes,” he said. “There were bits there we would want to improve on, but that’s the same in every game.
“We had a really positive meeting about those bits. Most of it is in our control. Around the lineout there were two call errors – one we didn’t hear and one where we just got it wrong.
