Exeter Chiefs player ratings vs Toulouse | Investec Champions Cup

Press Association

Exeter Chiefs player ratings: Exeter endured a torrid evening at Sandy Park, as Toulouse delivered a 10-try masterclass to seal a thumping 64-21 win. It was a brutal lesson for Exeter Chiefs as Toulouse showed why they’re among Europe’s elite. While Tom Wyatt and Immanuel Feyi-Waboso gave the home crowd something to cheer about, the result spoke to the current gulf in class between the sides.

Despite the grisly scoreline, there were a few bright sparks for the Chiefs amid the carnage.

Here’s how the players rated:

15. Josh Hodge – 7.5
Busy and inventive, Hodge constantly probed Toulouse’s defence and showed sharp instincts to score a clever try. Admittedly, it might not have survived a more forensic TMO review, but hey, they all count.

14. Immanuel Feyi-Waboso – 8.5
Targeted relentlessly by Toulouse, but the young winger thrived under pressure. Broke tackles for fun and delivered a couple of sublime offloads. Another Lions stock boost despite his team’s floundering.

      All Stats and Data

      13. Ben Hammersley – 5
      A quiet outing before being hooked at halftime. Struggled to impose himself against a rampant Toulouse midfield.

      12. Tamati Tua – 5
      Patchy in defence and offered little going forward. Another victim of Toulouse’s merciless attack.

      11. Tom Wyatt – 8.5
      The standout player for Exeter, Wyatt scored two tries, beat five defenders, and racked up over 100 metres. Toulouse defenders must’ve been sick of the sight of him by full-time.

      10. Henry Slade – 6
      A mixed bag from the experienced playmaker. His kicking game kept Exeter ticking at times but he couldn’t influence the match as much as he’d have liked.

      9. Stu Townsend – 6.5
      Yellow-carded for offside, though it felt more like the team was being punished rather than Townsend himself. Still, he battled well and added tempo when Exeter found rare pockets of momentum.

      1. Will Goodrick-Clarke – 5
      The former England loosehead held his own against Dorian Aldegheri but they were both taken off at half-time.

      2. Dan Frost – 6.5
      Showed glimpses of his attacking flair with a lovely break and perfectly timed pass to set up Wyatt’s try. A few quieter moments elsewhere but his involvement in that score was a personal highlight.

      3. Ehren Painter – 6
      Battled hard in the scrum against a dominant Toulouse pack and had some decent moments in the loose. While far from perfect, the 150kg prop was solid shift in a thankless role.

      4. Rus Tuima – 5
      Worked hard but couldn’t make much of an impact against Toulouse’s ruthless pack. Fell off too many tackles. A learning curve for the rookie forward.

      5. Richard Capstick – 5
      Battled valiantly in defence but found himself overrun by wave after wave of Toulouse attacks.

      6. Ethan Roots – 5
      Industrious but ultimately outgunned. Struggled to keep up with the pace and precision of the Toulouse forwards and missed a few tackles.

      7. Jacques Vermeulen – 4
      Tried to lay down a marker with physicality but overstepped the mark, conceding three penalties and narrowly avoiding a card for a reckless high shot. A frustrating evening.

      8. Ross Vintcent – 7
      Confrontational and combative, Vintcent topped the tackle charts and added some much-needed grit. A brain-fade penalty for chasing down Merkler and shoving him wasn’t his finest moment, however.

      REPLACEMENTS

      16. Jack Yeandle – 5
      Struggled to provide the desired impact off the bench.

      17. Kwenzo Blose – 5
      Didn’t manage to stem the tide in the scrum after coming on.

      18. Jimmy Roots – 5
      Another who found Toulouse’s pack too hot to handle.

      19. Dafydd Jenkins – 6
      Added some energy and physicality in the second half, though the game was already well beyond reach.

      20. Greg Fisilau – 7
      Brought solid impact from the bench, carrying hard and coming inches from scoring a try. One of the few forwards to consistently get over the gainline.

      21. Will Becconsall – NA

      22. Will Haydon-Wood – 6
      Did what he could in a challenging environment.

      23. Zack Wimbush – 5
      The giant back had limited chances to make an impression.
