Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter says he wants to see a response from his players following last weekend’s Aviva Premiership loss at Newcastle Falcons.
Having gone into the game at Kingston Park buoyed by notable wins over Gloucester (away) and Harlequins (home), Devon’s finest hit a speed bump in the North East as the Falcons claimed their first league win in 20 games with a 29-24 success.
It was a disappointing outcome for the Chiefs, who with 20 minutes remaining in the contest were in front 24-17. However, late tries from Tom Catterick and Noah Cato proved decisive...
Recently redeveloped Exeter venue Sandy Park has added another new event to their calendar, Darts at the Park.
This will be an evening of darts not to be missed with legends of the game Eric Bristow and Keith Deller, hosted by ‘The Voice’ Russ Bray, on Thursday, 27th November.
Sandy Park, home of Aviva Premiership rugby team the Exeter Chiefs, has undergone a £10 million overhaul in 2014 and as a result, is able to host a wider variety of events and conferences.
The evening will commence at 7.30, with hot food available to purchase and a bar open, and the...

Just when it looked the Exeter Chiefs had taken two significant steps forward in this season’s Aviva Premiership, they sadly allowed one back as Newcastle Falcons claimed a priceless victory at Kingston Park.
Not since October 27 last year when London Irish were turned over 20-13 had Dean Richards’ side experienced the sweet taste of victory.
They were, however, the ‘Toast of the Toon’ come the final whistle on this occasion as tries from Sinoti Sinoti, Tom Catterick and Noah Cato, plus 14 points from the boot of playmaker Juan-Pablo Socino, helped them to end a 20-game...
Exeter Chiefs may be odds-on with the bookmakers to clock up their fourth Aviva Premiership victory of the season at Newcastle Falcons this Sunday, but head coach Rob Baxter doesn’t quite see as simple as that.
Winless in their last 20 top flight games, the Chiefs head honcho insists the Falcons have little to lose and everything to gain ahead of his side’s latest trip to Kingston Park (3pm).
Such a pre-match warning is certainly creditable from Baxter, who will figure in his 500th league game as either an Exeter player or coach this weekend. However, at the same time his...
Henry Slade insists he and his Exeter Chiefs are prepared to go to "dark places" in a bid to see off their Aviva Premiership rivals.
With three victories from four starts already this season, Slade was again at the heart of Exeter's latest success story as he helped himself to a maiden Premiership try and two penalties in the Devon club's 36-13 win over Harlequins at Sandy Park.
Alongside fellow young gun Sam Hill in the Exeter midfield, the 21-year-old back has enjoyed a stellar start to the 2014/15 campaign, producing a string of impressive on-field displays that have had...
Thomas Waldrom says it's vital the Exeter Chiefs continue to keep moving forward after an encouraging start to the 2014/15 Aviva Premiership season.
The Chiefs notched up their third win in four starts on Sunday when they overcame Harlequins 36-13 at Sandy Park.
Summer signing Waldrom claimed Exeter's opening try at the weekend - and took his own season tally to three as he touched down alongside skipper Jack Yeandle and centre Henry Slade.
Fly-half Gareth Steenson added a further 15 points, whilst two more monster penalties from Slade helped to complete the job on...
Rob Baxter’s calls for Exeter Chiefs to re-establish their Sandy Park fortress were well and truly answered as his side swot aside the attentions of visiting Harlequins.
Having only won two of their last nine league games on their own turf and just seven out of 17 matches in all competitions in the last 12 months, the Chiefs could not have picked a better time to rediscover the winning formula.
From start to finish, Baxter’s braves had too much for their rivals.
Thomas Waldrom, Jack Yeandle and Henry Slade all crossed for tries, whilst the boots of Slade and Gareth...
Exeter Chiefs welcome back Jack Nowell and Phil Dollman into their starting line-up for Sunday’s Aviva Premiership clash with Harlequins at Sandy Park (2pm).
Both Nowell and Dollman appeared off the bench in last week’s 25-22 win at Gloucester, but head coach Rob Baxter is keen to see the duo in action from the outset as the Chiefs look to record a third win in four starts this season.
England international Nowell has not started a league game since he injured a shoulder during Exeter’s defeat at Leicester Tigers last March, while Dollman has also had to sit on the...
Tony Rowe OBE held his audience captivated during his presentation at the latest Southernhay Breakfast Club on 19th September 2014. Over 60 people attended the event at the Southgate Hotel, despite the torrential weather getting to the venue.
A key element of his talk centred around taking an opportunity when they present themselves; a message he urged other Exeter based businesses to adopt, especially with next year’s Rugby World Cup coming to the city.
Adrian Hills from Kirk Hills commented, “We were thrilled that Tony was able to join us for this event – he’s a well...
