Premiership Highlights: Bath Rugby v Exeter Chiefs

Exeter grinded out a trademark 20-18 win at the Rec Arena - Deservedly so. Joe Simmonds got the visitors into the lead with a penalty kick and a Jonny Hill try inside 20 minutes gave Exeter a 10-0 and a strong foothold in the game. Bath responded in dogged fashion and two penalties from the boot of Freddie Burns brought the scores to 6-10 at the interval. The Chiefs flew out of the blocks in the second half and try from Sam Simmonds after a long series of pick and go's gave Exeter more momentum. Bath responded with tries from Banahan and Grant to take the lead with 10 minutes remaining. Exeter didn't panic and earned themselves a penalty which Joe Simmonds duly slotted to win the game. FT Bath 18 Exeter 20.
