This was a pretty good game - second half was very lively! Bristol scored a couple of good tries and CP's stepping was back to his best.

Notable for Bristol as Charles Puitau wasn't strapped up for the first in a year, the scrum didn't fold when Afoa went off and it's the first time we've beaten Exeter at home at Ashton gate.

How did O'Connor go?

I reckon Chiefs biggest 'miss' has been LCD, followed by Sam Simmonds, then Hill.

POC did ok, the Exe backs were up really fast (suspiciously so) so back play was quite disrupted. He then got taken off after a late tackle and getting a stinger.
