Care + Mas

for

Cipraini + Manu Tuilaigi?

what for Richie Gray?

what for Tom Youngs?

yh its ok you can keep him lol, i'l stick with Swarzeski.

Really want Castrogivanni!

Swarzeski + Marshall

for

Warburton + Gray?

for

Warburton + Gray?

any thoughts??

Brown + Marshall

for

Parisse + Parling?

Might struggle here; Daly don't really want to let go as he is a prospect.

Dagg and Franks need some big offers. Would be interested in Parling or Launch, and maybe Kearney or JOC in place of Dagg.

Yarde for Swainston? or Ford.

Also interested in Launch, Parling, Kolisi - for Welsh

Its a starting point... Wasn't just for him!

Swainston for Slater would interest me...

Will colouring the text help?! Or are your eyes too old

Who would you rate then for Swainston? I thought Slater was about even.
And don't even mention Cipriani or Tait...

Afoa what about him then? Could do James or Gill as both are decent LH's compared to Payne

---

Attwood, or Muller are very good replacements and available all year round, and with some like SOB or Louw will help improve the backrow.

Is Jaime George feasible then? I would like Slater but as you say a little to far.

---

Bath offer is what I was thinking along the lines of, will have a think!

You have Morris in the Academy? Not exactly too far away lol

Parling or Ford can Welsh do anything for them?

I knew you'd come calling if I mentioned Sharples (May not for sale).......make me an offer!

For Sharples? Would need winger/full back

Benjamin a step down....has he even played lately?!

Could possibly build a deal round Yarde/Morris/Cowan Dickie

What else for Cowan Dickie too?

Could let stooke go but I'd lose out on eq in that deal

Will have to look into it tomorrow. Wouldn't swap him in deal for yarde?

I'll take that as a compliment! Ha it would be my first yeah, I feel I'm losing out a little....what would it take for me to get Ed slater or another back up lock added in?

Never heard of him!

At the moment we have:
Stooke + Sharples
for
LCD + Morris

I just feel I'm losing out a litte as I lose someone on the fringes of international for someone not yet eq.

I prefer Savage fella.

Dawiduk for George to finish off the deal?

He'll be glos captain next year! I just feel the deal needs something else

Deal involving Wade and Halfpenny?

Domingo and Wade for Halfpenny and Vunipola?

Fair enough. No dramas

Yeah he is. I need some genuine pace I think

Maybe if I can find an impact carrier backrower to replace him. Think Billy V is a bit further ahead in his game at the moment than Yarde though, think he will be capped within 2 years

Allow me to consider it

Weepu + ?

for

Castrogivanni?

Hoani Tui +Marco Wenztel for Castrogivanni?

what for Liam Gill?

This one might happen, I'm really torn between Billy and Yarde tbh, I'm being indecisive

Geraghty + Broster

for

Cipraini?

anything for Du Plessis or T.Youngs?

c'mon what for Cipriaini?!

Cipraini + Warburton

for

Monye + Deacon?

no point loaning cips now...i would rather just sign him outright..

Lets finally do a deal!

What for Yarde, Parling, Wallace, Kolisi or Gill. And maybe even Corbs

Cheers Pooly.

Let's call it a clean slate, yeah

Gonna say no. I really like having Billy, sorry!

Tuilagi?

Something for Kolisi or Gill maybe?

Interested in Slater and Yarde

Could incoporate them into a deal?

Otherwise what about Wallace or Jones?

Jones
=
Swainston + £1m

?

Before I do any deals....you still interested in Sharples?

Cowan Dickie

I didn't mean SHarples for just LCD! We'd have to build it up. Got a good offer from Fluxy which would need to be beaten!!
