- Exeter 19-13 Bristol
- Chiefs celebrate opening of new East Stand
Exeter might have been showing off their new East Stand but this game nearly went west before Stuart Hogg finished it off with six minutes left. First-half tries from Tom O’Flaherty and Jonny Hill plus almost total dominance of possession gave Exeter a 12-3 lead with 10 minutes to go but it should have been double that.
Then the game was turned on its head when the Bristol replacement Henry Purdy intercepted Joe Simmonds’ pass on the halfway line and went in under the posts.
