Exeter Chiefs put their unbeaten home record in the Aviva Premiership on the line tomorrow when they play host to London Wasps in the day's late kick-off (5.30pm).

Having seen off Sale Sharks, Saracens, Harlequins and Worcester Warriors at Sandy Park this term, Exeter's assistant coach Ali Hepher wants his side to at least replicate those displays against a much-improved Wasps line-up.

Whereas last season's Dai Young's side spent much of the campaign fighting relegation with Newcastle Falcons, this time round the Wycombe-based outfit appear to be much improved and last...

Dean Mumm insists Exeter Chiefs can expect a formidable test when they welcome London Wasps to Devon this Saturday in the Aviva Premiership (5.30pm).

Like many at Sandy Park, the experienced Australian international clearly noted the display put in by Dai Young's side a week ago as they overcame Leicester Tigers 14-12 to record their fourth top flight win of the season.

The same day, however, the Chiefs were also in winning form as they recorded their first Premiership away scalp of the 2012/13 season with a maiden 27-23 success at London Irish.

It was a victory...

City players and Supporters Trust a winning team

Exeter City’s Supporters’ Trust is buoyed by the news that members of the club’s First Team squad have given their backing to the latest Trust Recruitment Campaign, by becoming members of the Trust, writes Martin Lawrence.

Joining the rank and file Trust membership is Club Captain Danny Coles, who was eager to lead by example by supporting the Trust’s Recruitment Campaign. Coles joins the Trust just days after City Manager Paul Tisdale launched the latest recruitment drive by renewing his own Trust membership.

Exeter Braves wrapped up their Aviva Premiership A League campaign with a convincing 49-7 victory over London Wasps at Henley.

In reply, Wasps claimed a first half try...

It wasn’t pretty, in fact it was downright ugly at times, but Exeter Chiefs have finally put to bed their Madejski monkey, writes Mark Stevens.

Having come unstuck on two previous visits to the impressive Reading venue, Rob Baxter’s men dug deep to not only see off hosts London Irish in a keenly contested affair, but at the same time the victory ensured they were also able to claim their first win on the road in this season’s Aviva Premiership.

In a stunning opening to the contest, the Devon visitors led 21-3 thanks to tries from Luke Arscott and Phil Dollman, plus the boot...

Ian Sharps’ first-half header was enough to give Rotherham a win against Exeter at St James’ Park. The defender met Ben Pringle’s corner at the end of the first half to score what proved the game’s only goal. Substitute Mitchell Rose was dismissed for the visitors shortly before full-time but it made little difference as the Millers held out to win.

The Grecians made a single enforced change to the starting line-up following their win on the road at Gillingham, as Craig Woodman was replaced by Jordan Moore-Taylor in the left-back position.

After bringing back six points from two tough away games at Bradford and Gillingham, Exeter manager Paul Tisdale is looking forward to the visit of Rotherham this afternoon.

A thumping 5-0 loss away at Dagenham for Rotherham was followed up by a 4-2 win against Cheltenham last weekend – but that was shortly followed by a home loss to basement club Wycombe, summing up the Millers’ unpredictability this season.

The Millers have a game in hand over most clubs in League Two, but their inconsistent form has seen them slip into mid-table despite being many people’s tip for...

Exeter Chiefs return to Aviva Premiership action this weekend with head coach Rob Baxter calling on his side to "show their ambition" at the Madejski Stadium.

After a solid enough opening in the top flight, the Devon club travel to London Irish on Sunday (3pm) looking not only to maintain their pace with the division's frontrunners, but at the same time collect their first away in the Premiership this term.

So far Baxter's side have been impervious on home soil, seeing off the likes of Sale Sharks, Saracens, Harlequins and Worcester Warriors with some notable displays....
