The clocks may have gone back overnight, but Bath used over time at Sandy Park to seal themselves a priceless Aviva Premiership victory over Exeter Chiefs.
Winger Semesa Rokoduguni landed the knockout blow for Todd Blackadder’s high-flying oufit, flooring the Devon outfit with a try seven minutes into added on time.
The England international powered his way to the line to seal a remarkable result for the visitors, whose other points on the day came from the boot of George Ford.

Rob Baxter has made no secret of the fact that his Exeter Chiefs side must get off to a fast start in this season’s European Champions Cup.
Defeat on the road in round one of last season’s competition meant the Devonians were always playing catch-up, but that they did with aplomb, eventually advancing out of a group which included the Ospreys, Bordeaux-Begles and ASM Clermont Auvergne.
In a curious twist of fate the Chiefs again find themselves up against the two French clubs, along with Ulster Rugby, in what is another testing Pool Two.
Damian Welch’s last-gasp try snatched a dramatic draw for Exeter Chiefs in an enthralling derby with Gloucester at Sandy Park.
With less than a minute remaining, Gloucester’s hopes of a second Aviva Premiership victory of the season were dashed when the Chiefs mauled their way over in the left-hand corner to tie the scores at 27-27.
Even then Rob Baxter’s side could have won it at the death, but the normally deadly Gareth Steenson was unable to land the tricky conversion from wide on the touchline.
