Chief executive Andy Anson, says theyve been running a mammoth programme of vaccination, covering well over 1,000 people, but that there have been challenges nearly everyone will have at least one dose. Well over 90 will have two doses that we will keep trying right until the last minute. There are individuals who didnt want to be vaccinated and we are trying to convince them it is the right thing to do but, again, it is not mandatory. People have the right to choose and we have to respect that, but it is not necessarily that helpful.

They never replace them. They been on this incredible run of fortune since then. The results have really turned around. They made it to fourth in the premiership to make the semifinals with a Beat Table Top in brussels last weekend in dramatic fashion there were 28 nailed down in the first half and they came back to level a full time and when it in extra time. However they take from the Exeter Chiefs or in their six consecutive Premiership Final and they are going for back to back titles, the chiefs, however the headlines from the Exeter Today have been that once again the Scotland Captain Stuart Hogg has been left on the bench for the final.
