Yeah they won it Pete, they thumped a team last week and team that was second lost - they did very well. Some very good youngsters coming through a lot of clubs atm.

Anything for Burgess Arry?

Sorry mate missed that one, I don't fancy that lol

Brown and Mac?

Louw, Faainga and Clegg?

Easter + Pisi + Zirkashvilli

for

Narraway + Mac + Beech

Thought the Zirka and Beech might of swayed you lol

I'm willing to go OTT for him as i quite fancy a pairing of 10.Henry Slade 12.Luke Mcalister by xmas next year

Forgot about Dowson. No interest in Monye.

Best I can do is Brown and Mac for Louw, Dowson and Faainga going through at the end of the season.

I am mate as Luke hasn't the time. It's not as time reliant as this league and shorter tactics.

Need a good commitment from you but love to have you on board

And you'll have Barritt! Lol

Love Burgess mate but Brussow is world class whilst I don't think Burgess is (big fan though)

Roberts, Wade, Brown interest me

any further thoughts mate?

Any FH I could loan??

What position you looking to improve for Mac mate?

Luke Narraway , James Downey and Steve Mafi for Nick Easter and George Pisi

Couldn't lsoe Croft in a deal for Mac mate, but could include Barclay to cover for Burger's injury?

what for jackson on loan

Hmm, not a swap deal , maybe??

Interested in Wade, Brown, Roberts for next year

am keen on Jackson and phipps mate - what sort of thing would you be looking for?

Could do Stankovich + Hipkiss for Monye?

Evens your team up a little as not many centres

not really after chisholm
more interested in mafi and hooper.

mac, mafi, hooper
for
bowden, botha, isaac ross

Haha...fair enough. You have loads of wingers though

They are all going to be first choice players for me next season mate.

Not sure if I've seen you play Jackson or Phipps this season (also interested in Claasens tbh).

These are the players I have available, if you any deals let me know.

WG/FB Jack Wallace (E)

Yea he's a good winger mate. Not sure he'll play for England again but he's been class over the years

Sorry mate, the only way I am prepared to lose young English talent for foreign players is if it's a serious upgrade in ability, whch I don't think either of those are.

To be honest mate there isn't really anyone in the positions that I am looking to strengthen right now. Maybe come back to it in the summer when I have a better idea of where my squad for next season is at.

sorry mate, but think Ford is going to be the best no10 in the world and wade is a big part of my plans for next season.

Skuse 4 Jackson loan

I can loan you Jared Saunders mate.

Could do you Mayhew and Baker for Beech?

Ok mate deal

Yes mate, now worries, stick it on confirms.

Just to say Claasens has now returned to your side. Thanks for the loan

Do you want to pay £8m back as you have the cash?

And my 3m....

Brown + Burgess

Barritt + ?

Make me a offer but it will be hard to deal with any of them players inolved

I'd need Brown + involved for Barritt mate, you know who I like

I couldn't include Brussow Arry, no probs.

I'd want Downey in a deal

How about

Easter + Pisi

for

Narraway + Downey?

sorry mate but Launchbury isnt for sale at all - think he will be one of the best locks in the AP over the coming years.

Slipper, Touhy, Narraway, Burgess, Roberts, Monye, Brown interest me

Wyles?

I'll let you know as i'm not overly keen on losing a EQ starter

SOB needs huge

Skinner/Delve/Botes interest you, maybe Robinson?

What for Monye?

Brown?

Burger as a replacement. Jamie Roberts and one of your top English Players.

Robinson, Burgess, Brown?
