Exeter hammer Stormers to reach semi-finals

Tom Wyatt scored his second try in as many games to open the scoring for Exeter

Exeter produced their best performance of the season to beat Stormers and seal their place in the Heineken Champions Cup semi-finals.

Sam Simmonds added a fourth after the break to all but seal victory.

Damian Willemse, Suleiman Hartzenberg and Marvin Orie scored consolations for Stormers, while Jack Yeandle and Tom Cairns added the gloss for Exeter.

Chiefs will either travel to France's Atlantic coast to face defending champions La Rochelle or host fellow Premiership side Saracens in the semi-final.

With Toulouse knocking Sharks out earlier on Saturday, the Stormers defeat signals the end of South African involvement in this season's Champions Cup.
