LONDON (Reuters) - Exeter spent years as the battling underdogs operating in Saracens' shadow but now find themselves as the big beast hoping to suppress the upstarts of Harlequins in English rugby's Premiership final at Twickenham on Saturday.

Even before Saracens' salary-cap fall from grace, Exeter had established themselves as the country's best team, underlined by their Premiership/European Cup double last season.
