Only flicker of light is that Exeter have scored to tie the scores with conversion to come and Tigers are feeling the pressure....for now

Conversion and another try Exeter.

Leicester are looking a far better team than us at the moment with their internationals back, they look revitalised and far more organised with them and Borthwick will only help this more. They are just up against a relentless well drilled machine in Exeter.
We might have to hope Worcester and Irish’s season starts to slow

After playing tennis for a while, Minozzi remembers it's supposed to be rugby.

Marler showed a yellow for deliberately kicking the ball away in the ruck.

Barnes goes to the TMO to see if we managed to drive over.

A man up, driving the maul with them on their final warning for another card, and we give it away.

1 minute to go and we knock on on halfway.

They won't win - were playing with a smile on their faces and were up for it

Exeter improved when Hill came on for Slade as he one hell of good defensive centre (decent in attack too) and kept Manu quieter!

Positives?

Hmm...

Players need to have a look at themselves. Coaches and DoR have to go.

We cannot afford to continue this mindless drivel of what they are calling coaching and sometimes players need a fresh coaching perspective.

Saints did it with Mallinder, you see it in football with Tottenham and Mourinho.

Sometimes even a great club individual has to go.

The game was ours to lose, and sure enough we did.

If we can't win against a team doing nearly as badly as us, at home, with a crowd of 25k and a man advantage then I think we're pretty much done for.

Ah well, the lineout has improved, so we'll probably have one of the best in the Championship.

Utter garbage...even on the 5 meter line with the maul broken up Robson didn't get the ball out and do something with it, it was clearly not going anywhere, then gets nicked.
I'm so annoyed, they thought the game was wrapped up at 20 mins then went on vacation. I'm sick of us thinking we can bash through players and a major culprit of this is Minozzi, he looks for contact when he's built like a fag packet. Umaga did some good things be honestly got taught a lesson from Smith.
Bollocks performance and we are officially in the mire. I'm sick of watching this shite.

Only followed on Bobby's text - wasn't confident once they scored their first try. That was probably the must win game, with no gifts coming down the road. Bristol away, Saints home.
