by LukeLovesLuka Thu May 31, 2012 5:31 pm

Rather not, interested to see how he goes.

by Steven_Sharks Sat Jun 02, 2012 6:06 pm

Do you still have an interested in TOL mate?

by Steven_Sharks Sat Jun 02, 2012 6:21 pm

I would do him for 7 mil if you were happy with that. Can come back to it when you have your cash and see how much your foreigns will cost you

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jun 05, 2012 4:54 pm

That's one very structured page lol...

Think you've over done Kitshoff's poundage a little Wink

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jun 05, 2012 5:09 pm

It's mental lol

I only say because I checked when I had him and he was 17st something, not like I'm checking all of yours stats though...honest.

Yea he's def not nearly 19st, hes got great mobility and looks a little smaller than some of the other props. Certainly doesn't lack technique though.

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jun 05, 2012 5:50 pm

Be very interested in BdP if you fancied a cheeky deal??

Trinder, Jones, JD too Smile

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jun 05, 2012 6:10 pm

Could give it a go...

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jun 05, 2012 6:19 pm

Best is the form hooker in the NH! Lol

No probs, obviously want a lot.

by 'Arry Spurs Thu Jun 07, 2012 4:10 pm

Anything for Steve Borthwick, Tom Johnson and Ben McCalman?

by dammit_chris Tue Jun 12, 2012 2:43 pm

Someone is trying to show off with their new homepage...

by Guest Sat Jun 16, 2012 11:37 pm

What for kolisi?? Horne you seem to need a centre ?

Fasivalu for vermaulen or jvn

by CJB Sun Jun 17, 2012 11:57 am

Kitch £18m

by Sgt_Pooly Sun Jun 17, 2012 12:33 pm

I'm not talking to you after comment on main page

by CJB Sun Jun 17, 2012 12:38 pm

Rate them quite a bit higher just thought you'd do a deal for cash maybe

by Sgt_Pooly Sun Jun 17, 2012 12:42 pm

He looks like a US marine....must remember to do legs in gym!

Kruger would take a tasty offer, been waiting 2 years for him to finally get noticed!

Interested in: Kitchener, Mullen, BdP (a lot), JD, Trinder....

by Sgt_Pooly Sun Jun 17, 2012 12:49 pm

Wouldn't do a straight swap Pete sorry.

Kruger + Waller

Kitch + Mullen

?

by Sgt_Pooly Sun Jun 17, 2012 12:54 pm

Get JD involved?

I know a long shot....Best + Kruger for BdP?

by dammit_chris Mon Jun 18, 2012 4:28 pm

Yeah no problem for him for free - just put it up on confirms

by Driver Mon Jun 25, 2012 6:58 am

What for Henry Trinder mate?

by Driver Mon Jun 25, 2012 7:28 am

And Mike Tindall wouldn't ;-)

by Driver Sat Jun 30, 2012 8:51 pm

No i wouldn't mate. Whitehead was one of the stand outs in his position in the AP last season and being exposed to TV this year more with Hieno rugby and Chuter is likely to be over taken by Tom Youngs this year. Also having the choice of Ruddock and Mac at 6 lets me pick who's in form there and playing well for Leinster there.

by Guest Sat Jun 30, 2012 11:47 pm

Mullan for Payne and fasivalu !

by Sgt_Pooly Thu Jul 05, 2012 1:36 pm

Kruger + ?

Kitchener + Tolufua

??

by Sgt_Pooly Thu Jul 05, 2012 5:50 pm

No probs

by LukeLovesLuka Sat Jul 07, 2012 11:26 pm

Anything for Nonu mate.

by dammit_chris Mon Jul 09, 2012 10:55 am

were you still interested in a loan swap for Gill mate?

by dammit_chris Mon Jul 09, 2012 2:31 pm

Are suspended players available for summer tournament?

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jul 10, 2012 3:23 am

Did you say you were keeping Kitch? If not what you looking for him?

by Sgt_Pooly Wed Jul 11, 2012 12:31 am

Cruden nfs, no probs

by dammit_chris Wed Jul 11, 2012 12:32 am

for some reason im keeping hold of Cane!

by Sgt_Pooly Wed Jul 11, 2012 12:51 am

I'm on nights too Sad

Just 5 EQ mate, test some combo's

by stnick88 Sun Jul 15, 2012 10:00 pm

nfs mate he is a beast and with having keegan daniel gives me a good backrow combo

by LukeLovesLuka Tue Jul 17, 2012 1:22 pm

Hines + Croft + Poit
for
Borths + Dus + Trimble

by CJB Tue Jul 17, 2012 5:06 pm

Kitch interests me

by LukeLovesLuka Tue Jul 17, 2012 5:09 pm

I'd do Hines for Skiv.

by CJB Tue Jul 17, 2012 5:38 pm

Whitelock isn't happening. Simmons or Romano however is a possibility

by 'Arry Spurs Tue Jul 17, 2012 5:49 pm

What for McCalman?

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jul 17, 2012 5:52 pm

What kind of deal for Kitch?

by 'Arry Spurs Tue Jul 17, 2012 5:55 pm

Also interested in Kitch...

by CJB Tue Jul 17, 2012 6:24 pm

Simmons + ?
4
Kitch + ?

by 'Arry Spurs Tue Jul 17, 2012 8:52 pm

I'm more interested in just McCalman, is there absolutely nothing you fancy doing for him?

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jul 17, 2012 8:54 pm

Which locks do you fancy?

by Driver Tue Jul 17, 2012 9:01 pm

Let's talk Kitchener

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jul 17, 2012 9:07 pm

That's not a straight swap right? lol

by Driver Tue Jul 17, 2012 9:13 pm

I'm listening...

by CJB Tue Jul 17, 2012 9:37 pm

I would probably have done this deal if the 40 limit wasn't in but I can't see a way to fit McCalman in my squad. If I lose academy I'd want one back

by Driver Tue Jul 17, 2012 9:41 pm

I'll deal on that then.

by Sgt_Pooly Tue Jul 17, 2012 9:47 pm

That's not a realistic deal Pete, I'll leave Kitchener

by LukeLovesLuka Tue Jul 17, 2012 9:55 pm

Kitchener? What could we do?

by LukeLovesLuka Tue Jul 17, 2012 10:00 pm

Have Horwill alongside Whitelock and maybe Grey as best in the world mate. Bit of a non starter.

I'm after an EQ lock, have Shaw but won't get much longer out of him.
