Gareth Steenson almost gets the drop on former Ulster teammates

Ulster 19 Exeter 18: Dungannon’s Gareth Steenson came within a whisker of a dream return to his home province on Saturday night.

Unwanted by Ulster a decade ago, he made his way to Exeter, and the-32-year-old fly-half managed to steer his side into what looked like a winning lead with four tantalising minutes remaining in an often frustrating Champions Cup clash in Belfast on Saturday night.

But alas it was not to be for the Exeter skipper who had earlier landed five sweet penalties to keep Ulster at bay.
