Exeter Chiefs 45-3 Scarlets

Exeter's Ian Whitten tackles Peter Edwards of Scarlets

Scarlets suffered a six-tries-to-nil hammering at Exeter in their opening pre-season encounter.

Olly Woodburn went over twice for the hosts, with Harry Williams, Tom Johnson, Matt Jess and Thomas Waldrom also going over.

Joe Simmonds added a conversion with Gareth Steenson kicking five and Will Hooley succeeding with a penalty.

Scarlets' points came from the boot of debut-making fly-half Rhys Patchell in the opening period.
