Champions Cup: “Can Toulouse play this level against Leinster? We’ll see,” warns the Exeter coach

Rob Baxter (Exeter coach, beaten 64-26 by Toulouse): “We had to try to challenge physically. We did it in the first half. Then, they raised their level of play, gained confidence. As soon as our quality of tackles dropped, they scored try after try. The Harlequins (opposed to Toulouse in the semi-final), they are a little further along than us in their journey as a team. They will be able to learn from our mistakes. As a group, we need to mature further, physically and mentally. I would have liked us to score one more try, to reach 30 points, to score 30 points away against a great team, that would have been a bonus. Toulouse are capable of beating many teams in the English Championship if they play at this level. Can they have this level of play against Leinster, if they win the semi-final? We'll see."
