Exeter Chiefs have raided Doncaster Knights to complete two new signings ahead of next season.

Coach Rob Baxter has snapped up tighthead prop Alex Brown and hooker Jack Yeandle from the Championship side.

The two 22-year-olds joined the Knights at the start of the current campaign and have become prominent features in the Yorkshire side's starting lineup, and Doncaster director of rugby Brett Davey is sad to see the duo leave.

"It's disappointing to lose two quality players, but I would never begrudge a player moving to a higher level," said Davey.

"I wish them the best of success with Exeter in the Premiership and their future rugby careers."

Chiefs currently sit fifth in the Aviva Premiership table.
