Quote MessageWasps need to get it away from the forward areas as quickly as possible. Their talented backs can cause problems but Exeter are more than capable of holding their own in the forwards.

Jimmy Gopperth, straining every sinew to try to send the ball as close to the corner as possible, ends up winging out beyond the Exeter line. An error from the Wasps fly-half.
But from the resultant scrum the visitors win yet another penalty, which Gopperth this time finds touch with successfully.

One thing we haven't seen too much of is reset scrums - which Greg Garner is very kindly putting right for us now.

Meanwhile, the league's top try scorer Thomas 'The Tank' Waldrom is onto the field to a rousing reception. It'd be sort of fitting if he was to play a significant role in the closing 20 minutes, wouldn't it?

Jack Nowell is the man to lose patience, the Exeter Chiefs wing electing to run... And run straight into the sizeable frame of George Smith. A huge hit.

Quote MessageWasps had handled Dave Ewers so well today but from the ruck the big man picked up the ball and swatted a few Wasps players away. Chiefs back in the lead, and a great time to score whilst Wasps are a man short.

Image source, PADave Ewers has the try - and just look at that celebration! Ewers, and the Chiefs, know what a big score that is, as all the replacements pile on to celebrate.
The Exeter forward uses every inch of his frame to slam his way over from close range and stretch Exeter's lead out once more - which is extended further still by Gareth Steenson's conversion.

This could well be an interesting opening passage of play, with Wasps now aided by the wind in Devon but a man light, with Carlo Festuccia still in the bin.
Christian Wade's kick down the Exeter left is spilled by Gareth Steenson, so Wasps have the scrum.
