Re: Team v Chiefs
Betfair have the spread at Exeter+1.5 points so it expects a close game, I am more bullish than that and would be offering Exeter +5.5 if I had the satchel.

The old trick of not giving your best bowler the new ball so when he comes on at first change he's properly p*ssed off and bowls like a man possessed?
To be honest, of the 4 locks whoever misses out can feel that they have done little wrong. It's good to see Ackermann has 'nice' problems such as this and has the luxury of rotating and controlling the minutes played.

Will have to think up a suitably flamboyant song for Cal when he comes off the bench, something to the tune of a Verdi opera, perhaps?

Is he out on loan then? We're playing Saries.

What is slightly frustrating is that even after 4 - 5 weeks off we still have about 1/3 of our first XV in sick bay
( Ruskin, Dreyer, Kriel, Polledri, Sharples ) . No doubt the others are more than up to the job however.

Be fair, some injuries are more serious than others! And for information, Charlie was injured in the closing minutes of the game at Castres. He is aiming to be fit for Bristol away, according to the man himself on C&W Wednesday.
