Phil Dollman believes Exeter Chiefs have their seasonal destiny firmly in their own hands as they look to attack on three different fronts between now and the end of the campaign.
After four successive Aviva Premiership victories - the latest being a record-breaking 74-19 success over winless London Welsh - the Chiefs are not only sitting second in the league standings, but are nicely placed to also attack the latter stages of both the European Challenge and LV= Cups.
It was around this time a year ago that Rob Baxter's side collected their first-ever piece of major...
Exeter Chiefs fly half Henry Slade is included in the England squad preparing to face Scotland in the RBS 6 Nations clash on Saturday after Brad Barritt was ruled out of the reminder of the tournament.
The Devon-born 21 year-old, who has featured impressively at inside and outside centre for his club this term, replaces unlucky Barritt after the Saracens centre who suffered an ankle sprain against Wasps on Sunday.
With Sunday's Leicester Tigers vs Newcastle Falcons match also affecting the availability of players to train, Bath Rugby hooker Rob Webber comes in for Tom...
Much of modern day rugby is all about analysing data, crunching numbers and reviewing performance - and the role of club analysts has become increasingly vital in the success of any professional club.
Here at Sandy Park it's no different for the Exeter Chiefs as Performance Analyst Simon 'Chucky' Norris heads up the club's department in that very field.
Video content, statistical spreadsheets, opposition trends and player analysis are just some of the areas that Simon and his dedicated team look to maximise during their working week.
For 20 minutes it was a decent enough contest, but then Exeter Chiefs kicked into gear and winless London Welsh simply had no answer to the might of the in-form Devonians.
Rob Baxter’s side steamrollered their way to second in the Aviva Premiership with a nine-try destruction of the Exiles. It wasn’t vintage stuff from the Chiefs – even though the scoreline suggests otherwise – but it was still more than enough to clock up an 11th league win of the season.
Free-scoring No.8 Thomas Waldrom added two more tries to his seasonal tally – he’s now on 12 and still top of the tree...
Ali Hepher says Exeter Chiefs will go “full bore” at ensuring this latest block of Aviva Premiership fixtures finishes on a high note.
Having notched up successive league wins over Newcastle Falcons, Harlequins and Bath to move to third in the current standings, the Devon club will now be looking to add the scalp of lowly London Welsh to their list of victims at Sandy Park today (3pm).
It’s certainly been an encouraging response from the Chiefs, who either side of Christmas lost four games on the bounce in the top flight.
Welshman Tom James says the desire to push hard for silverware is a key motivator for the Exeter Chiefs as they look to attack on three different fronts between now and the end of the season.
With the Devon club currently sitting third in the Aviva Premiership, as well as in the latter stages of both the European Challenge and LV= Cups, the talented winger acknowledges he and his team-mates are entering a crucial period in their campaign.
Three successive league wins against Newcastle Falcons, Harlequins and Bath have placed Rob Baxter’s side firmly in the mix at the top...
Dean Mumm believes Exeter Chiefs can ill afford to let their standards slip when they tackle winless London Welsh in the Aviva Premiership this Saturday (3pm).
The Devon club moved back into the division’s top three last Saturday following their first-ever top flight win over local rivals Bath, but this weekend will come face to face against an Exiles side who have lost all 16 Premiership games to date.
Henry Slade’s 11-point haul with the boot, plus Will Chudley’s late try, ensured the Chiefs of a 16-6 victory against a Bath side, who in turn countered with two penalties...
Newton Abbot RFC and the Exeter Chiefs have announced a three day Rugby Training Camp this Easter at Newton Abbot Rugby Club starting on Monday 30th March to Wednesday 1st April.
The cost of the camp is £40 for two days with the third day thrown in for free, courtesy of Exeter Chiefs and Centrax, one of Exeter Chiefs key sponsors.
Open to boys and girls from 5 years to 14 years old, the camp has been organised to teach young rugby enthusiasts rugby and multi sports skills from qualified coaches in a fun, action packed environment.
Will Chudley had only just trooped off the Sandy Park pitch following a first-ever Aviva Premiership win over Bath, but already the Exeter Chiefs scrum-half was focusing his thoughts on the next task in hand.
The Chiefs clocked up their third successive top flight victory on Saturday, as 11 points from the boot of Henry Slade and Chudley's late try helped secure a 16-6 victory against their nearest and dearest.
Exeter's success helped to propel Rob Baxter's side back into the top three with just six rounds of domestic league action remaining.
It had to happen one day, but Exeter Chiefs finally banished their ‘Bath hoodoo’ by defeating their local rivals in a pulsating Aviva Premiership encounter at a sold-out Sandy Park.
Having failed to defeat their nearest and dearest in nine previous top flight attempts, Rob Baxter’s men stood tall to claim a priceless victory that lifted them to third in the current standings.
Fly-half Henry Slade slotted three penalties for the home side, as well as converting Will Chudley’s all-important try, six minutes from time....
