The Tigers were hungry for something more before half-time, the Chiefs desperate to resist, but on 39 minutes they gave away a penalty for hands in the ruck and Flood cleanly struck his fourth goal kick for a 16-3 lead.
Exeter shot themselves in the foot at the beginning of the second half when Mieres dropped a pass from his scrum-half Haydn Thomas right on his own tryline.
Waldrom then tackled the fly-half as he tried to recover the ball and when Jason Shoemark also failed to clean up, Flood hacked the ball into the arms of Smith who passed it down the line for Thompstone to jog in his second and Flood converted.
The Chiefs were determined to make amends, no one more than Mieres, and when the Tigers worked another opportunity for Logovi'i Mulipola, the fly-half chased him down and bundled the 19-stone prop just out of play.
But it was not long before Thompstone made up for it Leicester Tigers v Exeter Chiefs 30 - 8

Flood converted but a fourth try, and a bonus point, proved elusive for the Tigers and the Chiefs sneaked in at the end from half a yard out when White went over for a consolation score.premiership,Tigers celebrate Adam Thompstone's try against Exeter , aviva premiership rugby 2015\/16rugby,leicester tigers,aviva premiership,tigers vs exeter chiefs
