Exeter Rugby Club can confirm that following Sunday's disappointing result against Gloucester Rugby, club Chairman and CEO Tony Rowe CBE, has made the decision to suspend coaches Rob Hunter and Ali Hepher pending a full review of the match and the 2024/25 season to date.

Rowe said: "No final decision regarding the club’s coaching structure going forward has been made, and it would be improper to make any further comment until all internal procedures have been completed."

In the interim, Director of Rugby Rob Baxter will step into a front-line coaching role to oversee the remainder of the season.
