No swansong for Hogg, Nowell, Simmonds x2 or Ewers for Exeter. Nice to see Fisilau get a start and finally Devoto plays.

Expect Irish to get a thumping win.

No leavers list for LI (could be everyone if the takeover doesn't happen soon), so not clear whether it's anyone other than Simmons' swan song. OHC does sit this one out though prior to his move.

Hard to know what's going to happen here with the disrupted prep. Strong side on paper compared to Exeter, but also wouldn't be a huge surprise to see the season end with a whimper.

That Chiefs back three could be a really good watch. Lots of potential. Agree good to see Fisilau get a go.

LI must feel confident looking at the team sheet though.
