9am Briefing: Hughes' Euro dream for Hibs becomes a reality

Hibs boss John Hughes said he has been dreaming of European nights on the new Easter Road pitch in front of the new east stand and that he is delighted the 2-0 win at Tannadice has made it a reality.

Jim Jefferies reckons the first half performance in the 2-1 defeat to Celtic at Tynecastle was the best from the side since his return as Hearts manager.

Edinburgh Rugby threatened to make the Magners League play-offs when they led Leinster in Dublin with four tries and the result between Cardiff and Munster was in their favour but a late rally by their hosts saw them lose out in the game and the play-off race. It was also revealed afterwards that Ally Hogg is leaving the Murrayfield club to join Newcastle.
