Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter hopes to see a different side to his team after insisting tomorrow's visit of London Irish in the Aviva Premiership is a "must-win" encounter (3pm).
With just one win in their last eight top flight fixtures, Baxter has seen his side slip from top four hopefuls to that of a team now positioned in eighth spot, some nine points adrift of sixth-placed Sale Sharks.
However, the Chiefs leader is hoping this weekend's return to home comforts against the visiting Exiles will help to re-ignite his side's chances.

If you haven't got a ticket for today's crunch tie between the Exeter Chiefs and Toulon at Sandy Park, city bar The Hole In The Wall is the place to be.
Earlier this week, supporters kept alive the spirit of the Entente Cordiale by inviting their rivals from across the Channel to join them for a drink.
The two teams meet at Sandy Park this Saturday in the long-anticipated Heineken Cup group game.
As last season’s winners Toulon – who boast among their squad England legend Johnny Wilkinson – will be formidable opposition for the Chiefs.
Ali Hepher knows his side are not a “million miles” away from challenging for top honours in this season’s Aviva Premiership, but he was left frustrated after Exeter Chiefs slipped to their second home defeat of the season against leaders Saracens.
With just minutes remaining at a packed Sandy Park, the Chiefs were denied for a second time in the contest by TV match official David Sainsbury, who claimed there was “inconclusive evidence” to award a late try for Exeter’s England international Tom Johnson.
Although watching countless replays of the flanker hurtling towards the...

Aussie international Dean Mumm says he and his Exeter Chiefs team-mates are relishing a return to Aviva Premiership action this afternoon when Leicester Tigers provide the opposition in a sold-out encounter at Sandy Park (5pm). Without a game for two weekends, the Devon club welcome a star-studded Tigers line-up to the Westcountry not only looking to build on successive top flight wins over London Welsh and Harlequins, but also keeping their push for the top six firmly on track. Mumm, a summer recruit from Super 15 side Waratahs, has settled in well to life in England and having...
Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter believes new signing Ceri Sweeney is a "perfect fit" as he looks to bolster his squad for the 2013/14 season. The Welsh international, who has agreed a one-year deal, is Baxter's third capture ahead of next season following club-mate Tom James from the Cardiff Blues and also Gloucester's Dave Lewis. Fly-half Sweeney heads to Sandy Park after five years in the Welsh capital with the Blues, where he has scored 324 points in 109 appearances - and before that four seasons with the Newport-Gwent Dragons where he landed 570 points in 86 appearances. His...
