Whoops. 

Exeter Chiefs extended their lead at the top of the Gallagher Premiership to eight points yesterday with a bonus-point win over Leicester Tigers at Sandy Park, keeping them in pole position for a home semi-final.

England international George Ford gave the Tigers an early lead with a penalty and a drop goal before Dave Ewers put the Chiefs in front with the first try of the game on 27 mins.

Stuart Hogg then finished an excellent team try just before the break to put the home side in control.

The Chiefs then scored two second-half tries, one through Luke Cowan-Dickie and a penalty try awarded by the referee to ensure maximum points.

Cowan-Dickie’s effort has everyone talking after the hooker accidentally got sick on one of his teammates amidst the celebrations. We’re not sure if he got a little too excited, or maybe made a wrong decision with his lunch choice.

Either way, he was nice enough to apologise for the little dribble on Twitter. Good man Luke.
