Exeter Chiefs will continue their build-up to the new season tomorrow when they welcome Ulster Rugby to Sandy Park for their latest pre-season assignment.
Rob Baxter's side kicked off proceedings last weekend with a 45-3 thumping of the Scarlets on home soil, but they are expected to face a much tougher proposition from the Irish province who, incidentally, they will tackle twice in this season's European Champions Cup.

The Australian international was among a 30-strong group of players who were given their first run out of the new 2016/17 season when the Chiefs defeated the visiting Scarlets 45-3 at the weekend.
Although not on the scoresheet himself, Turner – who arrived in Devon during the second half of last season after a spell playing in France with RC Toulon – took the opportunity in the summer sunshine...
Nuffield Health Exeter Hospital is continuing its winning partnership with the Exeter Chiefs for a fifth successive season.
With rugby becoming an increasingly demanding sport physically, it’s crucial the players have the right medical team behind them.

In an often one-sided encounter, last season’s Aviva Premiership runners-up simply had too much in all departments for the Scarlets, whose scant reward on a sizzling summer’s day was a first half penalty from...
Rob Baxter has warned his Exeter Chiefs squad they can ill afford to ease into the new 2016/17 season as opportunities to impress could well be scarce.
The Devon kick-off the first of three pre-season games tomorrow at home to the Scarlets (3pm) and Baxter is looking to give a large nucleus of his troops the chance to impress.

Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter has confirmed England star Jack Nowell is likely to miss the start of the new 2016/17 season.
The 23-year-old, who was part of the victorious England side that won 3-0 against Australia this summer, recently underwent surgery on a thumb injury.
Whilst it is unclear at this stage just how long the Cornishman will be sidelined for, Baxter has already resigned himself to the fact that Nowell is likely to miss the three pre-season games, as well as the opening weeks of the Aviva Premiership campaign.
The Exeter Chiefs squad were all smiles as they lined up for their first team picture of the 2016/17 season.
England star Jack Nowell and his fellow players laughed and joked in the sunshine during their annual media day.
