REPORT: Morgan brace in vain for Dragons in Edinburgh
The Dragons pushed Edinburgh all the way at BT Murrayfield before a late three-try rally from the hosts sealed things in the Scottish side's favour.
Edinburgh's efforts came from a James Johnstone brace and Magnus Bradbury and two Duhan van der Merwe efforts then sealed victory.
Edinburgh crossed first when Chris Dean laid the platform for Johnstone to open the scoring Jaco van der Walt added the conversion.
Dragons soon hit back with Jordan Williams involved and the away side's backs did the rest as Morgan finished off what was in the end a fine team effort.
Johnstone then added his second as he benefitted from fine approach work from Darcy Graham, but Morgan was on fire as he intercepted Deans' pass and raced to the line.
Lewis converted and kicked a penalty as the Dragons went to the break 17-14 to the good.
Lewis missed with a drop goal effort on the game's resumption and Van der Walt levelled the game with 25 minutes left. It was a tight encounter with the Dragons very much in the contest.
Sadly for the men from Rodney Parade, Edinburgh pulled clear in the final quarter.
With their forwards to the fore, Bradbury smashed over for the score which broke Welsh resistance.
The Dragons were now out on their feet and Van der Merwe took full advantage to grab a late brace and wrap up the bonus-point win for Edinburgh.
