[QUOTE="welshglory, post: 799155, member: 38673"] They've got big money though. They could go the Toulon route. Looking at their squad so far for next season including the signings already made; Fly-half, prop, lock and the midfield should be target positions to strengthen. Flyhalf must be a target position. Sheedy is too young to carry a premiership season, Jarvis probably isn't even premiership level and Henson is too much of an injury liability to rely on. Tusi will add competition but i'm not sure he is a first choice player. I wouldn't look at Priestland too be honest, he's hopeless under pressure and on the back foot and he's also an average goal kicker. Bit of a wishful list but these would be ideal candidates, i think some of them could be tempted. Tom Taylor (Toulon) - good goal kicking general Morne Steyn - Stade would probably be happy to let him go, would suit Premiership structures a lot more Toby Flood - Sale were chasing him earlier in the year Luke McAlister - Off contract at Toulon i believe, Bath were rumoured to be chasing him earlier this year. Patricio Fernandez (Clermont) - young Argentinian superstar Lionel Beauxis (Bordeaux) - good goalkicking general Santiago Fernandez (Pau) good goal kicking general Juan Martin Hernandez (Jaguares) - under contract for 1 more year, but buy him out with a big contract? Berrick Barnes (Top League Japan) - rumoured to be chased by Newcastle last year [/QUOTE]
