We'll need one of our first choice 10s, if we're going to beat Saints and Bath for the title. Injuries have hit us at the wrong time.

Searle is supposed to be fit for the play offs but also just watching Gloucester dismantle Northampton makes me more confident

Northampton with late winning try 

 

seem able to convert possession into a try when they really need to

A bonus point win today gives us a little flexibility for a possible home advantage next week but just need to secure the win 1st.

Exeter need the win to stay in contention and have their own straight shoot out with Sarries & not have to worry about Bristol who should beat Sale next week.

Even if we lose today, isn’t it a straight shoot out next week regardless? It’s gonna be hard with our 4th choice fly half making his league debut but the rest of the team should look after him

If you look at the results since the new year, Tigers have been absolutely smashing the points in. Some really high scoring games.. just tighten the defense a little and we’d be such a force..

COME ON YOU TIGERS!

Been poor today 

Too many missed tackles and titcombe in the 10 was understandably rusty 

 

if we lose next weekend then we could well be away at saints

Cunning plan to finish 4th instead of 3rd.

 

More chance of beating Saints than Dyson RFC in the semis

Not often you see us getting knocked back in the tackle, but Exeter did it over and over again. Ref let them get away with alot of pens around their try line as well. Overall a shit day.

glad they got the yellow for the intentional knock on but can’t help feel he got away with something similar first half… disguised  it a bit better in first half though…

Team that wanted it more got the win today but again not a good look with some of the things being missed and not sure what pictures the TMO was watching but if the TV commentary has images showing groundings (Radwan try)  and the TMO cannot see it something needs looking at.

Where I was coming from was that if we rattled a 5pt win with a gap of 31pts or more in the score we could have been able to draw next week and get it or even lose providing we achieved the bonus points of 1 or 2 depending on if Bath got 4 or 5 themselves.

As it happens it’s now just winner takes the advantage with them or a draw is good enough for Bath.
