Nowell helps create rugby history

Exeter Chiefs star Jack Nowell was part of a heroic England defensive display as the Red Rose country earned their first series win in Australia with victory in the second Test at AAMI Park in Melbourne.

Recalled to the starting line-up having been only a replacement in Brisbane the week previous, the Cornishman featured for the whole 80 minutes during an outstanding display from Eddie Jones’ side.

England started well as they took a 10-0 lead through Dylan Hartley’s converted try and a penalty from Owen Farrell. However, the Wallabies countered before the break with...

Exeter Chiefs duo Jack Nowell and Luke Cowan-Dickie both came off the bench as England beat the Wallabies for only the fourth time in Australia as they triumphed 39-28 in a mighty battle in the first Test in Brisbane.

The win looked unlikely when they fell 10-0 behind early on as Michael Hooper and Israel Folau scored for the hosts, but Eddie Jones’ side hit back through the boot of Owen Farrell and tries from Jonathan Joseph and Marland Yarde.

After the break Australia – who included Greg Holmes and Dean Mumm in their ranks – rallied as Hooper and Tevita Kuridrani crossed...

'Don't let it slip now' - Nowell

Hat-trick hero Jack Nowell says Exeter Chiefs cannot afford to let their standards slip as the quest for glory in this season's Aviva Premiership cranks up another notch. The Cornishman was in devastating form on Saturday, helping himself to three of Exeter's ten tries in their 62-24 demolition of Harlequins at the Twickenham Stoop. That success not only ensured Rob Baxter's side ended the scheduled top flight season on a significant high, but it guaranteed the Chiefs second spot in the table and a home semi-final against Wasps in the end of season play-offs. England international Nowell...

Exeter Chiefs winger Jack Nowell is looking to use England’s Six Nations Grand Slam victory to help steer the club to glory.
