Speaking to TNT Sport, Exeter director of Rugby Rob Baxter said: "We let ourselves down a bit in Bayonne but it was a dead rubber and the players played like that. We had a disappointing result last week and that is a motivator in itself. It's a sell-out crowd at home and the motivation is to show the best of ourselves."
