Seven try Chiefs destroy Lydney
0 commentsExeter Chiefs produced a convincing performance against lower league opposition to reach the semi-finals of the EDF National Trophy.
The Chiefs ran in seven tries in a flamboyant display, which included six second half substitutions and a sin-binning.
Westcountry rivals Lydney actually opened the scoring with a penalty just 2 minutes in, before being steamrollered by an Exeter side that enjoyed mixed success.
Hooker Simon Jenkins scored on his first game back from injury, but sub scrum-half Richard Bolt got yellow carded for tackling an opponent without the ball and many of the backs made more handling errors than David James.
With the Chiefs now in the Semis and enjoying a great run of form, they could be in line to be the first Exeter side to win a National Trophy since The Alphington Men’s Morris Dancing Elite won the UK Stick Bashing & Bell Jingling Jamboree in 1929.
