Exeter Chiefs secured a convincing 32-12 victory over Saracens at Sandy Park. Saracens initially took the lead with an early try from Elliott, but Slade quickly responded with a penalty to level the score. The tide turned when Bracken received a yellow card just before half-time, allowing Exeter to capitalize with tries from Norey and Slade shortly after the break, along with a conversion from Slade. Exeter continued to control the game, adding another try through Zambonin and a successful conversion from Slade. Saracens managed a consolation try from Isiekwe, converted by Farrell, but it was too little too late. Varney capped off a strong performance for the Chiefs with a late try, further extending their lead. Slade's outstanding kicking and playmaking were pivotal in this dominant display from Exeter.
