Defeat just a ‘blip’, says Lam

Exeter Chiefs 33 Connacht 13

“At the end of the day we are still alive in Europe. Yeah, they have a point over us, but they have to come to Galway,” Lam says as the Chiefs grabbed pole position in Pool Two.

“Ultimately when we do things as a team, we are a good side, and that is the only way we can play, particularly when you come to a place like Exeter where many teams have struggled. We needed to play as a team and we didn’t quite execute. The sooner we move on from that and take the learnings the better, because we have an important game next week.”
