Wasteful from Dan. Do that if we've got an advantage.

Team don't seem on Dan's wavelength.  They haven't seen him for a while though.
Let me tell you something cucumber

Lots of loose ball, sadly it seems to be mainly our fault and we can't capitalise.

Wish Tempest would be slightly more generous on the ground from the squeeze ball position, you don't have to be on the ball in those circumstances.

Nice to see Basset breaking tackles and making ground.

Think we look really good. That's definitely not full strength Exeter, but neither are we, and it's a hell of a difficult match.

I really wished Odogwu passed at the end there!!!

The defender had his arm pinned in the tackle.  He did well to hold on until he hit the ground. Could have been ripped clean in the tackle.

Good first 40, fantastic energy in defence. Chiefs will go for the full 80 so we need to hit the ground running second 40.

Defensively we were outstanding. Left a couple of tries out there but got to be happy with that. Our lineout continues to malfunction though. Is the weather going to enter stage left to help Chiefs again?

Enjoying defensive resolve of our boys. Must be so frustrating for Exeter to be played at there own game and losing battle! But the wars not won yet

He was never going o pass, he didnt even look around him before being pinned, thats why he isn't a 13 long time, he never passes anything and never presents the ball in 2 hands to show a potential pass.
A player with more nowse passes that before being tackled, it was an open goal.

Here's a stat from Stu Farmer on Twitter:.

Exeter have now been held scoreless in the first-half just four times since February 2018, all in @premrugby, and on three of those occasions it was against @WaspsRugby at Ricoh Arena!!

How did those three games end up?
