Wishing to change our sides (8)
I believe the answer is:
desirous
'wishing' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'change our sides' is the wordplay.
'change' is an anagram indicator.
'our'+'sides'='oursides'
'oursides' with letters rearranged gives 'DESIROUS'.
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for desirous that I've seen before include "Ready" , "Wishful, wanting" .)
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
