'STEENO' - Thanks for Everything

After 16 years with the Exeter Chiefs, Gareth Steenson, is moving back to Ireland and to new opportunities.

 

But what a legacy he has left. 

 

Joining the Chiefs back in 2009 from the Cornish Pirates, Steeno went onto become the club’s leading points-scorer of all time during a distinguished playing career that saw him win a European Champions Cup, two Premiership titles and three Premiership Rugby Cups, one of which was as a coach.

 


His kicking prowess was legendary and is the stuff of folklore for us supporters, who will fondly remember a rainy night in Bristol back in 2010, as well as his heroics in 2017 to help the club lift their maiden Premiership crown.

By 2020, his playing days were done, sealed with a historic European and Premiership double. However, within weeks he was challenging himself in a new way, part and parcel of the Chiefs coaching set-up.

He and his family have always been close the Chiefs supporters' hearts and they will be sorely missed. We wish them all the best for the future.


To mark the occasion, the Exeter Chiefs Supporters' Club presented Steeno with a tankard engraved with the words ....
