but lacks a real out and out flyer which would be nice, although with Watson not ready yet and Wade/Yarde injured we were a bit limited in that regard.
May is fast. Really, really fast. Over 100m probably the quickest of all three. He's done the 100 in 10.71 - he's a flyer for sure.
In the context of Nowell and Brown though you're right. Long term (i.e. potentially after the World Cup) I'd be interested in seeing (it's actually quite similar to what Clive Woodward put a short while ago):
9. Youngs
10. Ford
11. Yarde
12. Manu
13. May - he plays there sometimes for Glos, but would need to spend more time there to justify his place. Otherwise Daly, Joseph and Trinder are good player
14. Wade
15. Watson
That would be an incredibly quick side, with a good degree of skill and power as well
