Foreign Transfers

by Driver Tue May 10, 2011 3:12 pm

First topic message reminder :

As a general rule, if you want a world class player (and by world class I mean a player that I consider to be one of the 3 best in the world in his position at the moment), you will be looking at between £20-25 million.

For a top international with over 30 caps, £17-22 million, and an international with less than 30 caps £15-20 million. There may be some exceptions to this in the case of certain players, but this will be the general rule.

There will be an upper limit of £10 million for uncapped academy aged players unless two or more managers want the player and enter into a bidding war in which case there is no upper limit.

Bids for uncapped players who are over academy age limits will be judged on their own individual merits.

Arry have you seen Hargreaves the other sharks lock. Seriously good player

by 'Arry Mon May 30, 2011 9:41 pm

Think I may have gone in too high for Sykes, going to change my bid to £20m for him.

I prefer Sykes mate, think people will also see more of him due to the fact that he is joining Leinster.

Withdraw my interest in Scarlet's second choice 8 Wink

by dammit_chris Tue May 31, 2011 7:42 pm

Guys can we just clarify a rule that I am unsure on - once you make a bid in this for a foreign, does it mean you can't withdraw it - I remember last year that there was a bit of fuss around this area, as some saw it as people trying to push up the price for other players.

Just want to check on the rules, as if so will be withdrawing a bid I have in the domestics!

by Sgt_Pooly Tue May 31, 2011 7:48 pm

You can't take out a bid and rebid if that's what you mean. If somebody withdraws a bid it goes to the next highest bidder.

Think Morgan is with Prop at 40m

Hi Driver. thought transfer bids had to be in place for 24 hours before being accepted.

you have just accepted a load that have been up for barely 12 hours.

by Guest Wed Jun 01, 2011 1:30 pm

Gloucester bid 18 million Adriaan Strauss of the Cheetahs

I've yet to look at that smiley and not laugh. First time I saw it I was in bits!

by LukeLovesLuka Wed Jun 01, 2011 2:26 pm

Same Steve, still cracks me up, especially when used in a context like that Laugh

18m TNW

by prop_lyd Wed Jun 01, 2011 9:26 pm

Do I have Morgan now as it's been 24hours?

by dammit_chris Wed Jun 01, 2011 9:29 pm

think its safe to assume your bid was accepted prop! You could have had Kankowski for £30m...

by **Ozzy3213** Wed Jun 01, 2011 9:32 pm

With foreigns you have to wait for Driver to confirm it's been accepted prop.

by prop_lyd Wed Jun 01, 2011 9:36 pm

Thing is chris, I really like Morgan, I need a ball carrier plus he's eq up till the 6n!

by dammit_chris Wed Jun 01, 2011 10:28 pm

And Prop you now get a foreign transfer bid - if I were you I'd go for Scott Higginbottom, the Aussie and probably the best no6 still available in the game, would link well with McCalman too. Reckon you could get him for around £19-21m too.

by prop_lyd Wed Jun 01, 2011 10:30 pm

Has he not gone yet??!! Blimey I rate him!

Higginbotham 19mil

by dammit_chris Wed Jun 01, 2011 10:34 pm

Yeah I'm sure no one has picked him up at all - very good player, and fits in very well with your backrow.

Will give you a few ideas for other players you could go for too when the next window opens!

by prop_lyd Wed Jun 01, 2011 10:54 pm

cheers buddy!! Happy that i'm getting my eq players up and shouldn't be hit too hard with w.c call ups

by Driver Thu Jun 02, 2011 1:47 pm

PROP - Morgan ACCEPTED
207 - TNW Accepted
Matt - Strauss Accepted

PROP currently leads the bidding for Higgenbottem but since no one has any foreigns left i'm going to respond now

PROP - Higgenbotham ACCEPTED

by **Ozzy3213** Thu Jun 02, 2011 2:00 pm

Man, I can't belive we have to wait a month now to all get our second transfer! Whistle

by stnick88 Thu Jun 02, 2011 2:08 pm

what about me driver? Nel accepted I assume?
