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.
Calling Exeter Chiefs fans (and wannabe X Factor finalists!) , come and join Exeter Chiefs' Neil ‘Diamond’ Clarky and Chiefs players after the Scarlets game on the 15th December in the Wigwam Bar at Sandy Park for a right royal rugby knees up of a traditional rugby singalong and karaoke!
Part of Neil's testimonial year celebrations, tickets are only an amazing £10 which will include a free pint and a free pasty.
Spaces are strictly limited so please book early to avoid disappointment.
Mix with the Chiefs and enjoy a great evening together!
