Flashback to a month ago when my boyfriend Patrick convinced me to head down to the Exeter fan zone and immerse myself in the Rugby World Cup. Now, four weeks on, I’ve watched Ireland beat France and lose to Argentina, seen Wales lose to South Africa and Argentina lose to Australia and, finally, New Zealand win the world cup.
Brought up a Birmingham City FC supporter with no knowledge of rugby, I’ve seen my whole outlook on the sport change under 2015’s world cup – for the better I must add.
That’s why Patrick and I headed down to Sandy Park to watch the Exeter Chiefs play...

In what has been an encouraging start to the new Aviva Premiership season for Devon’s finest, this Round Four match-up promises to be their toughest assignment so far.
