A Scottish side has not topped the table since Edinburgh did so at the end of September 2005.

The two teams also have the only remaining 100 per cent records, with two victories from two matches played, while Edinburgh's eight tries on Friday night earned them the Magners League's first try-scoring bonus point of the season.

Reigning Magners League champions Munster recorded their first victory of the new season over the Cardiff Blues at Thomond Park - keeping up the record that no Welsh team has won at the ground since March 2004.

Leinster also saved the first win of their 2009/10 campaign for a home game, beating the Newport Gwent Dragons 23-14. They have not lost at the RDS for almost 12 months.

The remaining Irish province, Ulster, turned all the forecasts on their head when they defeated the Ospreys 20-16 at Liberty Stadium - ending a run of 15 successive games in Wales without a victory.
