Eurowatch : Sale v Exeter (8-0-review)

EUROWATCH

Leinster have Exeter Chiefs, Montpellier and Glasgow Warriors
in their Rugby Champions Cup pool and we'll be keeping tabs
on them all over the coming weeks with our 80-word reviews


SALE SHARKS 6-10 EXETER CHIEFS

Just under 6 minutes to the first break in play, just over 30 to the first score.  It was 43 until the only try, after Lachie Turner spotted a [suspiciously created] gap in a breakdown to canter over, and the night’s scoring was done on 58m after a de Klerk penalty.  The remaining ‘action’ was mostly prolonged kick tennis and bouts of boshery.  Exeter survived a late Townsend yellow to defy their 5-day turnaround with a handy away win.
