- Exeter 18-15 Saracens
- Tight game settled by decisive try from Luke Cowan-Dickie
A big game and an even bigger result for Exeter. The home side have not had the smoothest of calendar years, but a try apiece for Tom O’Flaherty and Luke Cowan-Dickie in front of a reinvigorated crowd made it another sobering trip west for a Saracens team who tend not to find Devon the happiest of hunting grounds.
The second-placed Londoners, who lost the try count 2-0, could have few real complaints with Exeter’s fifth straight home league victory over their opponents, partly assisted by the visitors’ lack of self-discipline.
