    Edinburgh and Scotland wing Duhan van der Merwe has had a scan on the ankle injury he picked up in Friday's win over Dragons.

    British and Irish Lions hopeful Van der Merwe, 29, went off in the first half of the 38-5 win and was seen in a protective boot.

    "Duhan went for a MRI today," head coach Sean Everitt said on Monday. "We haven't had the results back. We should know that early this evening.

    "He's in a boot. But we can't see the damages. A little bit of soreness and swelling this morning and that's all I can report on."

    Dylan Richardson has spent his whole career in South Africa

    Edinburgh head coach Sean Everitt has revealed the club are trying to sign Scotland hooker Dylan Richardson.

    The 26-year-old, who has six caps, has spent his entire club career with Sharks in South Africa and can also play in the back row.

    After reports emerged earlier this week touting the possibility of a move, Everitt was asked how likely a deal is after Edinburgh's United Rugby Championship win over Dragons on Friday.

    "We're still in talks," he said. "Dylan has been on our radar at Edinburgh since he was 18 years old - that's when I was coaching him in Durban.

    "We've tried for a number of years to bring him to Scotland, so who knows?

    "I think the versatility is good for us. But, like I say, he's a Durban boy, he's got two years left on his contract, so yeah, it's a far cry - but not impossible."
