Exeter head coach Rob Hunter has left the club by mutual consent.

The move comes four days after he and attack coach Ali Hepher were suspended following Chiefs’ club-record 79-17 loss at Gloucester.

Hunter had only had four games as head coach, having been promoted to the role following Hepher’s demotion in March.

After a 52-38 loss at Bristol, he led Exeter to their third win of the season with a 17-15 victory over Newcastle.

An encouraging 26-24 loss to Bath followed before last Sunday’s 13-try thrashing at Kingsholm.
