Exeter Chiefs touched down six tries in their Aviva Premiership clash against London Irish this evening to record a 38-11 victory.
Gareth Steenson was the first player to go over the line for the Chiefs, splitting the Irish defence afer being set up by his forwards before missing his own conversion.
London fly-half Chris Noakes replied with a penalty, before Don Armand touched down for Exeter after an effective rolling maul brought Rob Baxter's side close to London Irish's try line.
Immediately after Steenson popped over a penalty, Luke Cowan-Dickie scored the Chiefs' third try of the first half.
Steenson added the extra two points, while Noakes sent over another penalty to leave the scores at 19-6 after 40 minutes.
James Short finished off an Exeter move immediately after the second half began, touching down in the corner after quick passing allowed the Chiefs to break through London's defence.
Steenson converted once more but missed a further attempt in the 49th minute following Jack Nowell's first try.
Blair Cowan, who lined out for Scotland in their defeat to South Africa last weekend, touched down after 54 minutes for London Irish's only try of the game.
Nowell recorded another try in the dying moments of the game with Steenson making no mistake from this conversion attempt, to give the Chiefs a 38-11 victory.
