🔥 EXETER CRASH THE PARTY!

🔥 EXETER CRASH THE PARTY!17 Jun55 min

It is finals week on Maul or Nothing — and somehow Exeter Chiefs have smashed their way into the 2026 PREM Final.

After a ridiculous comeback against Bath, Rob Baxter’s Chiefs are back at Twickenham, Henry Slade is still absolutely ridiculous, the Exeter scrum is looking like it has snooker balls hidden in its socks, and Bath are left wondering how 41 phases, white-line fever and no Finn Russell magic ended their season.

Max Lahiff joins us after the Premiership awards and a stag do — which already sounds like a medical case study — while Ryan Wilson survives a full daddy day care weekend and returns to help break down one of the maddest play-off weekends in years.

We get stuck into Exeter’s 27-26 semi-final win over Bath, the Chiefs’ unreal play-off record, Stephen Varney’s impact, Santiago Carreras and the drop-goal debate, Bath’s final attacking passage, and whether Finn Russell’s injury ultimately cost them a place in the final.

Then it is Northampton Saints v Leicester Tigers: a proper Premiership classic. 76 points, 11 tries, Tom Litchfield’s hat-trick, George Furbank’s farewell fairytale, Henry Pollock carrying like a man possessed, Fin Smith pulling strings, and Rory Hutchinson still not getting nearly enough credit.

And then we look ahead to the big one: Northampton Saints v Exeter Chiefs in the 2026 PREM Final. Can anyone actually stop Saints? Or are Exeter about to turn the fairytale into a robbery?

Plus, we preview the URC Grand Final as Leinster face the Bulls again. The Bulls are in their fourth final in five years — but is this finally their time? And how much does the URC really matter to Leinster compared with the Champions Cup?
