BDP + Nacewa
for
Croft + Benjamin + Murphy

Enquiry Only.

BDP + Nacewa + Sackey + Johnson
for
Croft + Murphy + Benjamin + Waldrom

?

Croft + Murphy + Smith

AJ + Bdp + Nacewa

You gain slighty more.

Im really interested in Benjamin, to go on my wing.

Croft + Benjamin
4
BDP + Sackey

I will only do 2's and 4's, 3 isn't fair.

A gain each!

Then I would lose out twice.

Only way im selling Johnson is if you add Thomas the Tank.

Or just do Croft + Benjamin for BDP + Sackey.

You do have O'Connor, Wade, Smith, Tait and Agulla who are adapted to the wing, so losing Benjamin isn't a big hit.

Smith and Agulla have been good this season for Tigers anyway.

So.

Croft + Benjamin
for
BDP + Sackey

?

Ok deal thanks.

Won't say hold on, because you won't plus I want Benjamin on my wing.

We got there in the end for the mess haha.

36 and Brookes interest

If it's a big'un

Johnson can play 8

I wouldn't recommend playing him there, he's a thorough 6 and you have Treviranus or Baxter...

Can you update your page and I will post something similar to what I'd like

36 + Lowe + Kitchener + Wallace
4
Percival + Haskell + Grove

Thinking on Johnson behalf.

Waldrom + Wade
for
Johnson + Nacewa + Freshwater

Enquiry Only.

Flood + Wade
for
Cruden + Nacewa + Freshwater

?

Ay possibly a bit ott

Wade + Ayerza
4
Nacewa + Freshwater + Armitage

Enquiry Only

You will still have O'Connor who single handily will win you games. Plus Nacewa will also give you rotation in the backs, like O'Connor. You have Murphy who I still rate, has been very good under the high ball, still scoring tries. Smith and Agulla have been good.

3 for 2 offer in your favour aswell and you won't be losing out on EQ, you will be gaining instead.

Wade + Ayerza
4
Nacewa + Freshwater + Armitage

?

Lahiff + Gibson

36 + ?

==

Not sure mate, I'm waiting to see if Sexton will confirm our deal. Seems everyone's getting a bit of the action though so we'll see.

Any chance of Cole/Castro? See tighthead as a position I need to improve on and you're strong there. Also, where would you play Gibson, since you have Warbs at OS?

Pooly - whats the deal on u21 foreigns? are they open yet or not?

If Gibson is rated at BS/8, I'm inclined to keep him mate. I am keen on 36, with King/Hape/Ansbro my midfield looks decent. Won't break the bank though.

Haskell five years younger and available all year so I'd prefer him

Yer he would but as a short term fix. As well as this there are more world class locks around

It is mate, but I'm not sure who you can offer for him. Warbs you won't sell, don't need Tank and not too keen on your other back rowers.

Think I had too many deals flying around, I think I will be ok.

Just going down the list of comments one by one.

Thanks for the concern though haha

You kinda got lost in the middle of ongoing negotiations!

Not overly keen to lose Clark at the moment. Especially since I may lose Dowson to Chiefs. Very handy player covering both flanks and lock for me.

NFS mate unless Warburton comes my way

Waldrom + Wade
for
Gibson + Ojo/Short + 5m

Enquiry Only.

No way. Gibson is too good a prospect to let go, unless someone in his own position comes my way.

Anything for Flood, and I will do big for Wade?

Benjamin + Gibson
for
Wade

That what you saying?

Will actually think that one over.

Might do it if your willing.

Benji + Gibson
4
Wade

I wouldn't mind losing Benjamin, but who would I have at 8.

Please let me do some prowling, for 30 minutes?

Im just trying a few things out, please give me 15 more minutes Pooly.

Give the newbie the credit he deserves, for working his socks off since joining

Time ran out, you probably sent everyone a PM saying don't answer him until after 9.45.

Benjamin + Gibson
for
Wade

Deal <ok> ?

Im not doing it Pooly.

You ripped me off, six people say that and you are being so unreasonable and stubborn.

I am a newcomer and only been in this game a day.

For goodness sake please, just scrap it and move on.

N/A

Im sorry for everything Pooly.

I love you

Are you quitting as a manager of this team as well?

Still not keen to lose Clark mate. Very tidy little player and his versatility is great!

Good call on Cronje. Gone very well for Metro the last 2 years. Think he was in the Top14 team of the year last season wasnt he? Considered him myself but I'm well stocked at 8!

Williams + Catt
4
Ayerza?

ENQ?

Benjamin/Wade + Tank
4
Rooney + Morgan
ENQ

personally think Morgan is going to be brilliant! But selling players like Wade + Benjamin is always risky...they could be amazing or they could just be decent

Wouldn't start for me

we aren't gonna agree :L

Still a no

couldnt do catt and heathcote

Anything for Luke Wallace mate?

My man love for BDP is strong Pooly, and he is one of the best players in the world, not just in his position, so any deal would have to be monster loaded my way elsewhere for me to consider it.

I'll have a think mate and come back to you.
