No doubt he is a very good player but I love the guys we have got and really love the mentality of the squad we are building. I feel  Daly would disrupt that a bit, behind the scenes. No foundation to this comment, just a gut feeling!

No. Think we have an already good sized group of talented wingers, centres and fullbacks not to need him. I don’t rate him enough personally to want to sign him and I think we could get better for less money elsewhere. It’s a shame for Wasps... they had him from his academy days and the club and it’s fans really value him. I know he probably wants to go somewhere where there is a better chance on paper that he will get silverware, but can’t help feeling that if he had stayed committed to and with Wasps for another season or two with the reshuffle they look to be having it would be a good option for him. Good luck to him wherever he does go. You tend to find these moves either work really well for the player or can do much the opposite, and there’s never normally an inbetween

It's odd that the club he's going to haven't announced his signing given that Wasps have confirmed his departure. I'd have thought it was a big coup for whoever's getting him.

Yes indeed so where is he going, the rumours say Sarries could any one else really attract him

According to the "Rugby POD" he's going to Sarries to play 13. But I can't see how that helps his England career. What if Eddie says I want you playing at 15 week in week out? They aren't going to bin Goode and they've got Liam Williams too. Very odd. Maybe it isn't Sarries, but if not who?

I find it very strange no announcement. DC did say that we had talks with him or his agent so who knows but that still doesn't sort out the playing 15 wiwo

The guy is a 13 who can cover wing in an emergency. He's a poor full back.

If he's going there to play 13, can we get one of their current 13s?

Regarding salary cap issues, in light of today's announcement we probably ouught to keep quiet! Plus we have Marler, Sinckler, Robshaw, Clifford, Brown, Care, Smith, Visser, Horwill, Saili, etc

Meh, it's a week's wages for an england player. Anyone who gets preachy about that can take a hike.

Well, it's all moot now, as Sarries on Twitter have just announced he's off to them...

Be a tussle for the 15 shirt between him and Goode. So maybe they are hoping to use Hinckley as a Utility Back. Or vice versa as we know Goode has experience playing Centre and Flyhalf aswell as Fullback. Innnnnnteresting!
