The latest edition of the official Exeter Chiefs Podcast hosted by Marc Ryan from Heart Radio & Chris Bentley from the Exeter Chiefs is now out.
Marc & Chris were joined by former Chiefs Captain & legend Andy Maunder as well as his son current Chief Jack Maunder.
The boys talked the journey the Chiefs went on from the late 80's to become the top of the table force they are now and also how things used to be done as Andy put it. Hear how Andy had to stand outside the dressing room whilst the players made him Captain and how Jack has followed in his footsteps...
Lachie Turner insists it’s “onwards and upwards” for him after he made his Exeter Chiefs debut in Sunday’s Aviva Premiership clash with Northampton Saints at Sandy Park.
The Australian international was a late call-up at full-back in place of the injured Phil Dollman, but he certainly didn’t look out of place on his first outing as he helped Rob Baxter’s side move to the top of the table following their 20-12 victory.
Five penalties from the boot of fly-half Gareth Steenson and a second half try from winger Olly Woodburn proved enough for the Devon club, who had earlier...
With just five rounds of the scheduled Aviva Premiership remaining, Rob Baxter has challenged his Exeter Chiefs side to go “flat out” in their attempts to secure a place in the end of season play-offs.
Having occupied a position in the top two for much of the season, it’s these final few weeks where the Devonians can really underline their credentials, starting with a big performance against Northampton Saints at Sandy Park this Sunday (3pm).
Buoyed by last weekend’s victory over the Newcastle Falcons, Baxter has tried to deflect any so-called pressure off his players by...
Exeter Chiefs can confirm that prop Alex Brown is to leave at the end of the current season.
The 26-year-old tight-head, who signed for the Devon club during the summer of 2012 from Doncaster Knights, is to join French Pro D2 outfit Perpignan on a two-year deal.
Although Brown still had a year to run on his existing deal at Sandy Park, the Chiefs have agreed to release him from his contract by mutual consent.
Since making his first team debut against Leicester Tigers in September 2012, Brown has so far made 60 appearances for the club and was part of their LV= Cup...

Head coach Rob Baxter hailed his Exeter Chiefs side as they saw off local rivals Bath Rugby to close the gap on leaders Saracens at the top of the Aviva Premiership.
Fresh from victory away to London Irish the week previous, the Devon club pocketed only their second-ever league win against Bath at a packed out Sandy Park.
Skipper Gareth Steenson was the chief architect of the home side’s 26-17 win, plundering four penalties and also converting tries for Ian Whitten and Kai Horstmann. The Irishman’s 16-point haul took him to 1,000 top flight points and edged him ever closer...
Exeter’s master marksman Gareth Steenson fired the necessary shots as the Chiefs gained revenge for their opening day loss to local rivals Bath Rugby by winning the return match-up at Sandy Park.
The Devon club cemented their place within the top two of the Aviva Premiership with a hard fought victory that saw Ian Whitten and Kai Horstmann cross for tries, while fly-half Steenson landed four penalties and two conversions.
Steenson’s 16-point haul not only edged him ever closer to Tony Yapp’s all-time club scoring record, but it put him on 1,000 Premiership points in his...
Ali Hepher insists Exeter Chiefs will need to put in a “stellar home performance” if they are to emerge triumphant from Sunday’s Aviva Premiership encounter with Bath at Sandy Park (1pm).
Having accrued just one win in 11 previous top flight encounters against their nearest and dearest, the Chiefs are hoping to inflict further woe on Mike Ford’s side, who are surprisingly languishing ninth in the current standings.
Beaten last May in the Premiership Final by Saracens, Bath have struggled to replicate the kind of form which helped to propel them to Twickenham. With just four...
A total of 369 men have already signed up for next month’s Hospiscare Men’s Walk starting at Exeter’s Double Locks pub and finishing with a FREE pint and a pasty.
“This is a great start and we’re hoping many more will join us for a walk along the canal and then watch the Six Nations England v Wales on huge LED screens in the Hospiscare bar, relaxing with a pint and a pasty,” said main sponsor Roger Wilkinson of Wilkinson Grant & Co.
“We’re raising funds for a vital local charity so join us!”
The walk on Saturday 12 March is an eight mile route along Exeter’s...
When push came to shove, it was Exeter Chiefs who powered their way to a ninth Aviva Premiership victory of the season against lowly London Irish.
Having trailed 7-6 at the break, Rob Baxter’s side returned to winning ways in the top flight with a hard-fought win that was not only timely, but helped to keep an ever-increasing chasing pack in the play-off race at arms length.
Replacement Dave Lewis scampered over for Exeter’s only try of the game, while fly-half Gareth Steenson did the rest of the damage with an unblemished 17 points with his trusty right boot.
