In a crucial match on the final day of the regular season, Exeter Chiefs triumphed over Saracens with a score of 32-12, securing the last play-off position in the Gallagher Premiership. This victory was particularly significant for Exeter, who had struggled last season, finishing near the bottom of the table. Henry Slade, the standout player for Exeter, played a pivotal role in the win, showcasing his skills and leadership. The match marked the end of Mark McCall's illustrious 17-year tenure as Saracens' director of rugby, a period filled with success but concluding in disappointment. McCall expressed frustration over the loss, acknowledging that Saracens were outplayed. Exeter will now advance to face Bath in the semi-finals, while Saracens will reflect on a season that ended abruptly. Other notable results included Gloucester's 54-21 win over Newcastle, securing a spot in next season's Champions Cup, and Sale's 38-17 victory over Bristol, ensuring their participation in European competitions as well.
