I'd like Priestland for my club, yep - that's not to say I think of him as a world class player as Jeremy Guscott seems to.
If this season is anything to go by than Andy Goode could be declining rapidly, whislt Joe carlisle has never looked the part and looks as if he'll go his whole career being a player who 'has potential'. He's only really starred in amlin games against mediocre/poor opposition. Baby Bell looks set to be preferred as a full-back if he stays at all - and the rumous are that he's not staying.
Priestland has his frailities but I think he can run a back-line of a certain type - I think players like Daly and Wade can bring the ebst out of him. In fact providing the price tag isnt' too high, I'm not sure why any prem club woudl turn him down, be it as a 1st or second choice?
Agree about Gaskell - I don't want him but apparently Dai is interested. Our back-row is the best thing about us atm - seems a bit silly. I'd rather sign a genuinely quality inside centre.
I'd say that Priestland really has got world class in him. He's had injuries and spells of bad form, but he's the kind of player Wasps should be looking to play if they really want to make the most of their outside back. Goode, god bless him, is a stalwart but he's hardly oozing X-factor.
Flood's gone out to deny the Toulous transfer. He says he's not going to decide until January so it seems like everything is speculation for a couple more weeks.
