Foreign Transfers

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.

This is pretty accurate. Taylor will do we for you Steve. Will offer some spark.

With jj developing etc you will be pretty much one of the favourites next year

He was always a big target just hope no one jumps in. Was just going to take the risks that my non academy age targets would last a little longer in the market.

His attack is sublime.

Surprised no one gone for Alex tolou yet of montpelier. Cracking 8

Is the academy rule under 22 by September

I mean taylor was going to have to wait untill after I tried to sign Sautia, Tj Peranera and Taute but now have given in and tried to sign him.

Tulou is a unit, saw him the other night and he was excellent.

Some carrier. He is next after savea for me

driver - Kevin McLaughlin - £15 million - ACCEPTED

anonmattyt - Ardea Savea - £5 million - ACCEPTED

I like Tulou. Montpeillers backrow is possibly the best in the Top 14 these days!

Do we know how much the cash injections will be yet Pete?

I do yes

Ah pete dont leave us hanging please!! Transfer planning is needed!

Rumour has it Sarries are getting a £40m cash injection...something dodgy going on with the RFU...

Monster really want taute though

Sgt_Pooly - Jonny Gray - £5 million - ACCEPTED

A big ginger for pooly!! He is copying pete !

you know you wanted to sign one as well Mat, it was the only reason you were interested in Denton!!!

I thought Denton was blonde?!

Thank god I didnt sign him. No gingers allowed at Irish.

Not sure how he'll settle, Kitschoff wanted off as soon as head about the Ginger revolution going on at Sarries

Now who will sign Paul Tito?!?!?!?!

Be interesting to see how Kitschoff goes in the JWC. Been looking good up against some experienced tightheads in Super Rugby.

Gave JdP all sorts of problems last week, fantastic talent.

he looks like that fat angry ginger kid that posts all the videos on youtube....

Both tightheads had issues in that game. Beast was giving Harris a torrid time on the other side as well. Had I not have sold Beast to prop, that would have been 5 out of the 6 starting front row players in that match in my squad!!!

Matthew!!!

Pete is my bid ok mate - off on holiday for 2 weeks on Friday so might not be on for a while if the internet is down out there and get the feeling I could miss out on quite a few good players in the process!

Steven_Sharks - Andre Taylor - £15 million - ACCEPTED

Ozzy3213- Jaco Taute - £15 million - ACCEPTED

dammit_chris - Motu Matu'u - £11.5 million - ACCEPTED

Anyone seen the videos of Matu'us tackles recently? My main tactic next year will be getting him to take out all the best players with his tackling! Machine of a man!

Fickou 13m

prop_lyd - Luke Charteris - £21 million - ACCEPTED

Driver - Hika Elliot - £18 million - ACCEPTED

Saracens bid:
Frans Malherbe - £7 million

Rhys Rudduck £18m

Some serious remodelling going on at the Chiefs. Ruddock was on my shortlist driver, think that's a good signing for you.

Same as Pete
