Exeter Chiefs made it back-to-back victories in this season’s Anglo-Welsh Cup, brushing aside the attentions of the Scarlets on their own patch.
For 40 minutes at least, the Welsh region went toe-to-toe with their English counterparts. After that, brute force took hold and with it came a flurry of points for Ricky Pellow’s side.
Shaun Malton, James Freeman and Tom Hendrickson all claimed tries for the visitors, but it was up front where they ruled the roost, inflicting a further three penalty tries on the Scarlets, who were physically no match for the Devonians in the set-...
Ricky Pellow believes a bit of fine tuning to the Exeter defensive plan this week means the Chiefs will travel to rivals Scarlets in buoyant mood ahead of Sunday’s clash at the Parc Y Scarlets (3pm).
Last season’s beaten finalists kicked off their Anglo-Welsh Cup campaign in fine fashion a week ago, dispatching Premiership counterparts Northampton Saints 43-28 in a seven-try success on home soil.
Although delighted with the way his side went about their business in attack, skills coach Pellow was somewhat critical of his players in the way they allowed the Saints to hit...
Exeter Chiefs put in a sparkling display to kick-off their Anglo-Welsh Cup campaign with a bang.
Ricky Pellow's side were all fired up on their way to a seven-try success against visiting Northampton Saints in this Round One opener at Sandy Park.
Summer signings Toby Salmon (2), James Freeman and Tom O'Flaherty were all on the mark for Devon's finest, as were James Short, Alec Hepburn and Elvis Taione.
Fly-half Joe Simmonds completed the job by converting four of the scores to give the Chiefs the perfect start to this season's tournament.
With just a week to go until the third Exeter Foundation evening with Michael Caines MBE, the menu and accompanying wine has been confirmed.
The menu, which has been devised by Michelin-starred chef Michael Caines MBE and Sandy Park’s Head Chef Sam Billson, includes luxury canapes, followed by a decadent five-course menu and petit fours and coffee to finish.
Ingredients have been sourced locally, including chicken from Darts Farm, vegetables from Dart Fresh and a selection of South West cheeses. The complementary wine has been specially selected to match each course by...
Ricky Pellow insists it will be healthy mix of ‘youth and experience’ that will lead Exeter Chiefs into battle ahead of tomorrow’s Anglo-Welsh Cup opener against Northampton Saints at Sandy Park (3pm).
With Premiership and European matters put on the back burner for the next fortnight, Devon’s finest will now be looking to continue their rich vein of form on a third front against the visiting Midlanders.
In a competition which has served the Chiefs well over the years - Exeter have played in the last three Cup finals, including defeating the Saints in 2014 to lift the...
Don’t expect this to be top of the pile in terms of the highlights reel, but Exeter Chiefs secured a vital, hard-fought away win to send them back to the top of the Aviva Premiership.
Just how long Rob Baxter’s side remain in pole position will be decided come the end of the weekend, but for now the defending champions are once more proving their credentials.
Five days after winning in the sunshine of the South of France, now the Chiefs were claiming equally precious reward on a cold and crisp night in the North West.
Lachie Turner’s converted second half try, plus...
Rob Baxter has challenged his Exeter Chiefs side to build on their impressive form of late when they return to Aviva Premiership action at Sale Sharks tomorrow night (7:45pm).
A decent league win over Newcastle Falcons at Sandy Park have been followed by equally strong showings in Europe, where the Chiefs have seen off both Glasgow Warriors and Montpellier, to give them a winning start to life in Pool 3 of the competition.
Now, Devon's finest must go again in the North West against a Sharks outfit who are notoriously tough opponents in home waters.
Jack Yeandle says he and his Exeter Chiefs team-mates will need to “rise to the challenge” when they tackle Montpellier in Sunday’s European Champions Cup fixture.
Having kicked off their campaign with a 24-15 victory over Glasgow Warriors last Saturday, the Chiefs will now make their way across the English Channel for an equally testing assignment against the star-studded French outfit at the Altrad Stadium (2pm).
Unlike the Chiefs, Montpellier suffered defeat in their opening fixture, going down 24-17 at Leinster, but they did manage to claim an all-important losing bonus...
