Head-coach Dan McFarland had praised Stockdale's performance at full-back on Friday in a youthful back line.
“We knew they would get a lot of possession so it was important we defended well.
“We wanted to build that white wall but that required a lot of effort and a lot of system application which they did.
“Jared Payne runs a very tight ship there for us. Edinburgh tested us but we held really strong.
