Exeter Chiefs assistant coach Ali Hepher is confident he will see a response from his side as they look to get their European Champions Cup campaign up and running with victory over Bordeaux-Begles on Saturday night (21 November, ko 7:45pm).
Undone 25-13 by the Ospreys in Round One, the Chiefs know this latest match-up against their French visitors is vital if they are to stand any chance of progressing out of Pool Two this season.
The Chiefs have spent this past week reviewing in detail their disappointing display at the Liberty Stadium, one in which Hepher admitted the...
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...
Rob Baxter believes today's visit of Leicester Tigers will provide the ‘acid test’ for his Exeter Chiefs side so far this season.
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.
England’s most decorated club will arrive in the Westcountry not only boasting a Premiership record of eight wins in ten starts against the Chiefs, but they are also one of only two clubs, the other is Saracens, who have yet to taste defeat this term.
British Sausage Week is now well underway, inviting the nation to celebrate one of our favourite comfort foods.
Exeter-based Andrew James butchery has got stuck in to Sausage Week, turning bangers to bucks for charity with the Exeter Chiefs.
When the Exeter Chiefs take on the Leicester Tigers on 7 November at Sandy Park, 50p from every sausage eaten during the match will be donated to the Exeter Foundation.
Fans will be able to warm up with on of Andrew James’s premium sausages whilst enjoying the feel-good factor of supporting a local charity.
Don Armand believes Exeter Chiefs underlined what they are capable of this season with Sunday's impressive victory over Newcastle Falcons in the Aviva Premiership.
Rob Baxter's side followed up their impressive home win over London Irish with an equally destructive display in the North East, sinking the Falcons with a six-try blast in their 41-3 success.
Back-row forward Armand helped lead the way for the Westcountry outfit as he scored two tries on the day in a man-of-the-match performance, which also yielded tries for Will Chudley, Julian Salvi, Matt Jess and Moray Low...

They say home is where the heart is and for Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter, he’s well aware that if his side are to be genuine contenders for a play-off spot in this season’s Aviva Premiership, then finding the winning formula at Sandy Park will be key.
Last term only two sides - Leicester Tigers and Gloucester - emerged victorious from the Devon venue as the Chiefs posted their best-ever top flight finish.
Sadly, such form was not enough to ensure Baxter’s men of a top four placing, points difference denying them on the final day, but it did show the Chiefs were more...

George Ford put the disappointment of England’s turgid Rugby World Cup campaign firmly behind him as his return to club colours helped Bath kick-off the new Aviva Premiership season with a narrow victory over Exeter Chiefs.
The England playmaker’s 14-point haul – including a penalty two minutes from time – proved the key difference in a tight affair at the Recreation Ground. Ford edged out opposite number Gareth Steenson in the game’s key kicking duel and he was part and parcel of Bath’s one and only try, scored in the first half...
