Northampton 30-24 Exeter
18 points from the boot of Fin Smith powers Saints to win

The champions' defence is back on the rails. Northampton could hardly describe themselves as at their best here, but they were worth a win that was more comfortable than the mandatory final-quarter comeback by the Chiefs might have suggested.

Exeter are a young side whose rebuilding phase proved more impressive than expected last season, but they do look what they are – a talented group still unfamiliar with the challenges of the Premiership and each other. But their comeback from 30-10 for a losing bonus point will encourage them.
