Fly-half Gareth Steenson led the way for the Devonians, scoring one of two tries in his own personal points haul of 21 points.
JAMIE REID struck a last-gasp equaliser to deny Bristol Rovers all three points at St James Park.
A long-range effort from Stuart Sinclair had looked to secure a seventh away league win of the season for the visitors, but Reid’s strike in the fifth minute of stoppage-time ensured a share of the spoils for the Grecians. City made four changes to the team that beat Mansfield Town in mid-week, including a first league start since September for left-back Craig Woodman.
