Going to be a really good game I reckon.

Exe dont lose many at home. They've got a few internationals back and i think they will be too strong. They really need a try BP, which is no given.

Agreed - Exe will win this.

More of an even match at Kingsholm, but two tasty sides there - still impressed by the Glos bench.

This is on channel 4 by the way. Who ever in charge of buying their rugby matches really has their head screwed on. It was amazing they got the ire vs nz game.

Thorley the form England winger? Love to see a flanker with the grubber kick but that's probably why it's not a good idea.

Flatman fancies Slade even more than I do.

Thorley again making breaks that he shoudln't be allowed to.

not sure Glos can tackle like this for a full 80 without leaking a few more.

Used to be able to bank on Williams getting those.

daft option in those conditions frankly

Is Woodburn dressed up as Prince for any particular reason?

Probably is, great feet and initial acceleration - but he didn't have the top end gas to outsprint Cuthbert, who is still surprisingly quick.

Who would you drop for Thorley though?

Thorley had a lot of pace taken out of him when he burst through 2 tacklers, Cuthbert was already at full tilt then.

I’m sorry but did nobody else see this?!

Ashton given the current squad

Forgot about him 100% agree

on the cusp of outchiefing the chiefs here.

Exe not on top form but Glos effort has been immense

Well done glos had a feeling about this game.

Exeter struggle when teams match them, it's my big worry about the calls for Baxter to be England coach.

He doesn't want to be england coach.

Wow. Who saw that coming?!?!?

I didn't.

Glad it did come though, beat Exe at their own game - best managed game of Rugby i've seen from Glos for a long time.

Ha. Just seen it. F**k me. Must be a bet. Has to be.

Surprised me. Exe not quite at the races but credit Glos for a full on 80 minute effort. They were worthy winners and cannot be discounted from going further.
Thorley enhanced his growing reputation but the real work was done up front in denying Exe the kind of platform they usually enjoy.

oh and Woodburn.....stylish, definitely stylish
