Richard Cockerill: 'Leicester Tigers must do better'

Leicester Tigers director of rugby Richard Cockerill tells his players that they need to improve, despite coming from behind to beat Exeter Chiefs in the Aviva Premiership.

Leicester Tigers director of rugby Richard Cockerill has warned his players that they must improve following their win over Exeter Chiefs in the Aviva Premiership.

The Tigers picked up their second consecutive victory of the season on Saturday as they came from behind to beat the Chiefs 24-20 at Sandy Park.

Despite seeing his team come away with the points yesterday afternoon, Cockerill believes that they are far from the finished article.

"It is a good win on the road and you take it as that. We won't get too excited about the result; we will take some positives but there are a lot of things where we need to be better," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.

"Any win is a good win because I think sides will get beat here (at Exeter) that will be in and around us. I thought that Exeter played pretty well, I thought we could have played better but both sides had players missing."

Leicester continue their Aviva Premiership campaign next Saturday when they travel to old rivals Bath.
