What game do Wales want to play?

Are you referring to the fans or Gatland and his staff?

He just needs to get some injury free time and then play like that in December and January . With Preistland really starting to show form again it may be a while to get a chance...but with Biggar going to Northampton this should give him a real chance to shine in the Summer tour and follow up in the Autumn since for whatever reason they do not see Patchell on that slot.

He looked decent to be fair considering his lay-off.
Apparently this injury had been bothering him for a couple of years so hopefully now it's sorted & we'll see some good consistent performances.
That depends on the Blues forwards supplying quick, quality front foot possession for him to use though.

I’m still not convinced by Biggar as an attacking fly half. He suited th old conservative styl, it Priestland looked far more threatening when he came on. When Anscombe has been on form he has impressed, he just needs a run of game time to make that case. Priestland won’t be around for much longer I suspect, and Patchell seems to be viewed with a bit of suspicion. It would be a real plus to have some strength in depth in a key position.

If Priestland keeps up his current form with Bath over the next few months he should be starting at 10 against Scotland in the 6N.
Won't happen with our coaching staff but it should. Biggar is a solid player but if we want to play an attacking style we desperately need a 10 & 15 to suit.
I'd consider North as a 13 with JD out injured.
We should've given Josh Adams from Worcester a game to see if he could step up, he's been on [emoji91][emoji91]
