Player Movements: Exeter Chiefs
- 3345
Having been promoted to the Premiership in 2010, Exeter Chiefs' positive entrance into the rugby scene was noticeable, with them finishing second in the 2015/16 season.
Exeter has contracted valuable players throughout the years, and each of their skills contributed to the sides' success.
Here are the four new signings who are expected to boost the side even further:
Greg Holmes (signed 21 December 2015)
Holmes joined the Exeter setup on a two-year deal after spending most of his rugby career with the Reds.
The prop made his Super Rugby debut for the Queensland side in 2005 and was part of Australia's World Cup squad.
Ollie Devoto (signed 15 January 2016)
Being one of the 7 uncapped players to have made Eddie Jone's 6 Nation squad, Devoto had several Premiership clubs interested in his signiture.
Chiefs got his attention and penned a three-year deal with the versatile back, with him saying: "It's a good move for me...Exeter is a very good club and they are very ambitious."
Dave Dennis (signed 1 February 2016)
Dennis was acquired by Exeter on a three-year deal after his stunts with Waratahs.
The Wallaby-capped forward became the third and significant addition for the Chiefs.
He became the Waratahs captain in March 2013, after being with the side since 2007.
Lachlan Turner (signed 16 February 2016)
Having mostly played for the Waratahs and the Reds in Super Rugby, Turner signed for Exeter on a two-and-a-half year deal.
In 2010, he won the "Gatorade Bolt", which is an invitational 100 metres race that earned him the unofficial title of the fastest professional footballer in Australia.
