Pretty full-strength side for Exeter and this'll be a massive test of exactly what that means nowadays. I'll be fascinated to see how the likes of Painter, Tuima, and Fisilau hold up in a much higher level of game.

Painter will look like a fat lad blowing out of his arse after 20

Quite a test for these players but its a very good chance to see exactly where they are. Add in Cairns to that list, who i've been very impressed with.

Agreed but I still have reservations about Skinner.

Skinner has reservations about Skinner.

That's what I'm hoping for - a few of them to really stick their hands up and look ready for international consideration.

I'm not sure about Cairns - he's promising, but he's very prone to thinking that there's a gap he can make it through, where there really isn't, and getting buried/turned over. Those kind of traps will slam shut even faster at a higher level.

great win and stones from Slade at the end.

He looked so calm. Well played lads.

Didnt see that score coming at h/t. Fabulous gutsy effort from Exe.

[Oakboy]

Fantastic result. Exeter won the 2nd half 14-0 which nobody would have dreamt them capable of. Some superb physical performances across the XV.
