Rob Baxter admitted it was a “hugely satisfying” feeling after Exeter booked a home quarter-final in the Heineken Champions Cup.

The Chiefs’ 33-14 Pool Two victory over La Rochelle at Sandy Park means they will return there for a last-eight clash – possibly against Saracens – in early April.

The Chiefs were not at their best early on, but they ultimately cruised to a bonus-point victory and secured a first European quarter-final appearance since 2016, when they lost by a point to Wasps.

Number eight Sam Simmonds led the way with two tries, while hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie, flanker Dave Ewers and substitute scrum-half Stuart Townsend also touched down, with Simmonds’ brother Joe kicking four conversions.

“We were kind of in the box seat (before kick-off), and the other team were coming with relatively little pressure and an ability just to play, and you could see how difficult it can be,” Exeter rugby director Baxter said.

“We showed that in the first half. We didn’t really have that emotional, edgy, very physical, very driven type of performance we’d had through the other rounds in Europe.

“At half-time, we just simplified things and talked about getting out there, being emotional, being tough, being prepared to knock ourselves around, and it looked like two different teams playing out there.

“That is a great credit to the players. They took it into their own hands, and five points in another Champions Cup game is not to be sniffed at.

“It is hugely satisfying (to be at home in the quarter-finals).

“It gives us everything we want out of the competition, which is an opportunity for as many of our supporters to watch it as possible, and it obviously cuts down on the travelling.

“When you get to the last-eight in Europe, you are not going to have an easy game.

“There is not going to be a team that is not quality. It’s going to be a humdinger, whoever we play.

“On the whole, I thought the team grew through the performance.

“To not concede points in the second half (it was 14-14 at the interval) after not defending well at all in the first half was very pleasing. It showed the qualities we can play at.”

La Rochelle claimed an early touchdown by wing Kini Murimurivalu, which Ihaia West converted, while they were also awarded a penalty try.

But Exeter were unstoppable during the second period, with England internationals Sam Simmonds and Cowan-Dickie in outstanding form ahead of Eddie Jones’ Six Nations squad announcement on Monday.

Assessing Simmonds’ performance, Baxter added: “He is a pocket-rocket. He is very powerful.

“What I like about him is he is becoming one of our leaders. He is out there driving things on the field and demanding things of the team around him.”

Recover the wallet password with the .json file


Incredible... I can't believe it... were my first thoughts when Robert wrote me! Good news!...


I was an early Ethereum adopter since the Genesis block, but I forgot the password of a wallet, and almost 8 years later, I can reaccess it with Infinite Digital Recovery. help. I had tried to recover the password for the last two years with hundreds of tests. Still, I failed and almost gave up when I read about Infinite Digital Recovery. works, I recovered my hope and decided to contact him. I handed over the .json file and some clues of what the key could be, including Robert's ability to find the password in just 4 hours, which was amazing.

The better for me was he. He fulfilled all the terms of our contract and sent me the recovered resources immediately, so I recommend him 100%. Best regards


How to recover a Bitcoin Wallet Password- Infinite Digital Recovery.


Wallet Recovery Services or Crypto Recovery Services, what are they?


Wallet Recovery Services is a general term used by crypto recovery companies to brand themselves as a company that will be able to help you recover funds. There are two types, one is offering password recovery, like our company, Infinite Digital Recovery. Others offer scam recovery, which is in itself a scam, as there is no way to reverse transactions on the blockchain.


What does Wallet Recovery Services do?


Most Wallet Recovery Services help their clients with the recovery of passwords to their crypto holdings. If you have created a blockchain.com account and hold a wallet ID in the format XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX, then it is possible to download the encrypted backup and, with the help of your best password guesses, recover the wallet password.


How much does Wallet Recovery Services charge?


The average cost to hire one of the top main services is 20% as a success fee. Any solid recovery service does not charge any upfront fees. If you are asked to pay upfront, then it's most likely a scam. There are also recovery services offering an initial lower fee, like 15% of the first week, and then they will ask for a higher fee if the wallet is not opened in the first run. There are also hardware recovery companies that can help you unlock a Trezor hardware wallet; these are generally more expensive and could charge up to 30% of the amount locked in the device.


Where can I find a trustworthy Service?


Bitcoin.com has conducted a survey and listed its most reputable Wallet Recovery Services. You can find it in Infinite Digital Recovery.


What are the most important aspects of a good and solid service?


Transparency and Accountability

Industry Leadership and Innovation

Exceptional Customer Satisfaction

Strong commitment to privacy and security
