Exeter claim victory over Harlequins to open their Gallagher Premiership campaign.
Quins scored first through Ibitoye but couldn't keep the lead as Exeter reacted by scoring minutes after giving them a 2 point lead. Chiefs were awarded with a penalty which Simmons successfully converted - adding to the margin between the teams. Quins slotted another 3 points to change the score line. So Exeter were leading at the break 13-11.
In the second half, Brown was stopped just short of the line. We kept going for it and got a penalty to go one point up. Exeter scored next to make it 16-14 to the Chiefs.
Then we made lots of changes. Dombrandt came on and played well. Ripped one ball and made some good tackles. But then Chiefs got another penalty: 19-14. Another made it 22-14. More changes from Quins, including Landajo coming off (had a great game). Then a brilliant try from Ibitoye closed the gap to 22-19. Quins had a near try at the end but an unlucky tackle without the ball (I thought) meant we couldn't get the winning try.
