Re: Wellington Hurricanes
What for Pocock then? Would include Dowson as the replacement.. obviously quite a step down but I'd hope I could make up for it with the likes of
Mujati, Albacete, Lawes, Ashton, Medard?
Pocock + So'oialo
=
Ashton + Dowson
enquiry for now. Would complete your backline.

Re: Wellington Hurricanes
Would say Weepu/Evans is pretty sweet too!
I couldn't add much. See them as pretty equal.
On the other wide, Genia > Weepu but could do a swap there if you added something.

Re: Wellington Hurricanes
There isn't a £10 mil gap between the two. I bought Evans for £26 mil, Cooper cost £28 mil.
You might say that the impact of Genia/Cooper inflates the price, but that shouldn't make a difference as you should look at the deal in isolation - ie Evans and Cooper, and any other players that may be involved in the deal.
Evans has been instrumental in 13 straight wins for Quins. Cooper had a bad WC and is now injured.
The price would have to come down, or we could look at a Weepu/Genia swap.

Re: Wellington Hurricanes
I still stand by what I said re Cooper/Evans, so wouldn't be too keen on adding cash. I was hoping to raise £8-£10 mil to get a player in!

Re: Wellington Hurricanes
Surely if there are two losses each there are two gains and a fair even middle swap?
I was only trying to give you a decent second row for Cooper.

Re: Wellington Hurricanes
I will implement the rule after this weeks games, ie. for the next set of injuries.
Yeah, it's the centre's I'm after. Will also have a nice little NZ theme going on.

Re: Wellington Hurricanes
Please note a new rule that has been introduced:
When you transfer injured players their injury becomes void and they are available to play for the acquiring side. You can transfer a maximum of 2 injured players per set.

Don't understand why Mermoz/Fourie isn't a great partnership - both top 5 in the world in their positions. Too one dimensional maybe?

Re: Wellington Hurricanes
Have a look at what I said to Fluxy.
Basically, I'd want to improve at 3/7 to lose Parra. Jane makes up for that, but no need for me to do the half back swaps as Evans isn't exactly a weakness.

Sorry mate I see the gap between Tialata and Franks being quite vast in comparison of the Tuilagi and Halfpenny gap.

More of the fact of losing Franks for Tialata mate. Balshaw isnt half bad. There are worse players.
