Exeter Chiefs facts:
25 years ago when the Heineken Cup was first played; Exeter RFC were in the 4th tier of English rugby.
Rob Baxter played for the club for many years, as did his brother Richie and his dad John.
(The Baxter’s farm 300 acres just outside Exeter.)
Rob Baxter is an absolute legend.
Exeter is a very easy team to like; they've got to where they are the right way, not by buying success and cheating (mentioning no names). They play rugby in the best spirit of the sport. a credit to achieve all this with what is a young squad (I read somewhere that the team who won the European cup had an average age of 25, the backs 23).
Mind you, they may have an issue with calling themselves the Chiefs. How long before someone accuses them of Racism through cultural appropriation ?
