I certainly didn't see that coming. The start had me confirming I was right but oh so wrong. Great almost team performance fantastic. Now safe from relegation 😁

Performance of the season by the sound of it.  Good to get the monkey off our back of having never won at Sandy Park too.

Brilliant. Great game. Superb defence. Joe Simpson with 25 tackles! I am going to be so sad to see Joe go but so happy that the boys are fighting so hard now. We all though what is Dai on when he was talking about top 4 when we were talking about relegation but huge credit to him and the team.

Just checked my blood pressure and it's through the roof as is my heart rate. What a victory!

Gaby really surprised me today, let's give him another year, I agree Shields was excellent...they all were.
It was fine when I left it.....

I posted that if we got 5 points it would be a miracle. Well miracles happen. Actually Exe looked unusually uncomfortable. Great team effort. Deserved it so much. Fantastic for the boys.

Amazing defence summed up by stopping Exeter when they had line-outs near our line.
I didn’t know Nathan had a cunning kick in him.

Considering two very costly mistakes let them in twice we did well to pull ahead. Daly’s kicks out on the full, as a result Nowell scores. We turnover and instead of hoofing we play ourselves into trouble, Hughes gives away the penalty and leads to their third try.
We’re still making costly and inexperienced mistakes but our defence was awesome today and made up for that, good to see them forced into so many mistakes today too.
Absolute heroics in defence from Shields and Simmo

Absolutely brilliant result. Best we've played all season and it was a joy to watch. Nath and Brad were immense and to a man everyone put a big shift in. Bring on the Estate Agents!!!!!

Exeter fans on Sports Network unhappy about our time wasting with injuries. Also very unhappy that the referee took no account of the wind when he whistled them up for line outs not straight. That did make me laugh.

Perhaps the wind works differently for teams from the West Midlands, I am on the phone to the National Physical Laboratory as we speak, they are flummoxed but have committed to working on an answer....

Everybody complains when they lose.

That is without question our best performance of the season. Nathan was absolutely superb and deserved motm.
Watson, Gaby, shields, Simpson had extremely good games. Launchbury was brilliant as well.

Our defence was the best I’ve seen it for years, we were in Exeter’s face pretty much all game. Not the best first 15 mins then brilliant.

I love it when we say ‘you shall not pass’ fantastic.

If we keep that up then we will be difficult to beat
