Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter has spoken of his delight after three of his current squad today put pen to paper on new deals with the Aviva Premiership club.
Props Ben Moon (top right) and Carl Rimmer (main picture), together with hooker Shaun Malton, have all agreed terms to extend their stays at Sandy Park.
Long-serving loose-head Moon has signed a new three-year deal, while Rimmer has agreed to extend his stay in Devon for a further two years. Meanwhile, Malton will be prolonging his Chiefs career for another year at least.
Some very strong winds are expected today (Thursday) in association with storm Doris with gusts of 60-70 mph likely, and 70-80 mph on coasts and hills.
Whilst the strongest winds look to be only short-lived, damage to structures, interruptions to power supplies and widespread disruption to travel networks are likely, with a danger of injury from flying debris. Trees are also likely to be damaged or blown over.
Heavy rain is also likely through Thursday as well as some snow over high ground as the system clears eastwards. These may prove additional hazards.
