Overview
- Gloucester beat Exeter 34-31 at Kingsholm in a Gallagher Premiership Round 14 match.
- The hosts raced to a first-half bonus point through Tomos Williams, Will Trenholm and a Max Llewellyn brace, and Trenholm was named man of the match.
- Exeter closed the gap with tries from Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, Greg Fisilau and Henry Slade, but a late red card to Ethan Roots for striking halted their push.
- Exeter kept fourth thanks to two losing bonus points, yet Bristol are only one point back, and Rob Baxter criticized his players for poor emotional readiness.
- Away from the field, Exeter members vote on 7 May on a proposed Black Knight takeover led by Bill Foley, a move that supporters say could reshape funding and club identity.
