Wallabies vs All Blacks Rugby

 The return of Gallagher Premiership action can’t come fast enough for Exeter, who will hope to pick up where they left off in early March. A 57-20 thumping of Bath prior to the pandemic shutting down professional sport means the Chiefs lead the table by five points going into the long-delayed round 14. Exeter have reached the past four Wallabies vs All Blacks  Premiership finals, losing three of them to Saracens. With the reigning champions condemned to relegation for salary cap breaches, Chiefs are favourites to add a second English title to the one bagged in 2017. A £1.4m reduction in the salary cap from the 2021-22 season has not noticeably affected Exeter’s playing personnel, with the likes of Stuart Hogg, Jack Nowell, Luke Cowan-Dickie, Henry Slade and the Simmonds brothers, Sam and Joe, among some 30 players to have signed long-term deals at Sandy Park.

 Wallabies Nic White and Greg Holmes are back in Australia but Scotland internationals Jonny Gray and Sam Hidalgo-Clyne have arrived. Both are in the match squad this weekend, with Gray making his debut in the engine room alongside Jonny Hill while Hidalgo-Clyne is among the replacements. Also on the bench is Tomas Francis. The tighthead Wallabies vs All Blacks live  hasn’t played since damaging his shoulder in Wales’ World Cup defeat to South Africa last October. “We feel we are well set,” said Chiefs DoR Rob Baxter. “The players look good, they’ve trained incredibly hard and I like what I see. However, the proof of the pudding will in in our performance. I don’t think we could have done much more from where we are now.” Opponents Leicester sit 11th in the table and have experienced wholesale changes over the summer. Of the 15 players that started their last game at Saracens on 7 March, just six remain. Nearly 30 players have departed and they include Jonny May (Gloucester), Manu Tuilagi (Sale) and Telusa Veainu.

Nemani Nadolo – scorer of more than 1,000 points in domestic and Test rugby – Kini Murimurivalu and Kobus Van Wyk are among the outside backs soon to be on view at Welford Road. And when you have in your ranks Harry Potter, a utility back signed from Melbourne Rebels, anything is possible! The major change, of course, is the management revamp which sees new head coach Steve Borthwick launch his Tigers Wallabies vs All Blacks Rugby stream  career in the most intimidating of stadia. Wins by Bristol and Sale at Sandy Park this season were the exception to the rule, Chiefs usually dominating visitors through the power and accuracy of their possession-based game. Tigers give a debut to Scotland centre Matt Scott after his move from Edinburgh while David Williams, on loan from Nottingham, will also make his senior debut for the club after being name on the wing. New recruits Luke Wallace and Zack Henry are on the bench. When the sides last met, at Leicester last December, a Jonny May brace helped Tigers forge a 19-7 lead before they were reeled in. Forwards Jannes Kirsten, Don Armand (two) and Hill crossed for Chiefs in a 31-22 win. Leicester’s last win at Exeter was in September 2014.
