Re: Biarritz Olympique - WRL Season 5
You are kidding me? Botha is the best front jumper in his generation...that's why him and Mats work so well. In a lineout you generally have a big unit at the front to give you a short banker ball.
Top front jumpers....bakkies, Hines, DOC, Deacon.
You then have a middle option, usually the guy who makes the calls and is lighter so he can be thrown up to take the ball at it's highest point.
Middle jumpers - Matfield, POC, Kellock, Sharpe
You then generally have a rear option. Usually a back row player, 6/8.
Backrow - Juan Smith, Easter, Harinord etc.
Bakkies is the best front jumper about due mainly to his physicality and not getting put off the jump.

I must have misunderstood:

"bakkies isn't known for his lineout work"

Not seen Hari jump much at the front if at all in a full line out. Mostly at the back or occasional middle.

Jenkins + Bonnaire + Williams
=
Woodcock + Brown + Guildford
All my players are rated better, Woodcock was in most people's top two for best loosehead prop I see, Brown has got some very good ratings with of course the world class players ahead of him, Guildford is better than Williams at this present time.
Jenkins & Palmer & Lobbe
4
Woodcock & Williams & McCalman
Woodcock better than Jenkins, Palmer better than Ali Williams, you seem to like McCalman and Lobbe and young McCalman are about evens on most people's lists.
What about that?
Thank you

Woodcock + Brown + Guildford + Evans
It's the same deal but with an added on gain for me, it's just one gain for me and three for you, in my personal opinion I rate Woodcock, Brown and Guildford higher than Jenkins, Bonnaire and Williams, Roberts for Evans is good but Roberts isn't a natural outside centre.
Im really looking at lock and centre, with the locks I have I don't think a deal for Lawes would be possible, Palmer on the other hand I might well get something. Roberts or De Villiers for Donald or Lambie is the only part I could do.
Palmer & De Villiers & Jenkins & Bonnaire

Williams & Lambie & Woodcock & Brown
Not thought on that properly it is only a thought.

Your just getting it all wrong, look at the ratings that is what im going by and my own personal feeling. I would need gains and out of all of them I only see one.
Im really sorry you have to cut it down to two, maybe something like this.
De Villiers & Jenkins

Lambie & Woodcock
Better possibly? - Thank you

It's a very good start mate, but looking for a fourth prop and keeping Stevens as third.
How about the last two parts of the deal?

Re: Biarritz Olympique - WRL Season 5
I don't see any rejection of that, you gave me a load of deals I really wasn't keen on so I cut it down, so I gain one player and you gain one player.
Woodcock was in everyone's top two loosehead prop, while Jenkins was around 4th,5th.

Can't lose Lawes sorry. Hoe about;
Ansbro + Kirchener + Skrela + Palmer + ayerza
=
Kahui + Halfpenny + Goode + thion + parr
Already said that I'm trying to add to my props, not losing my big three.
Really need laws, but could maybe settle for Palmer

Re: Biarritz Olympique - WRL Season 5
Your deals are pretty worse than mine, you gave me four to five players all in favour for you.
While I give you a player up on Jenkins in Woodcock, after all he got voted best loosehead prop on the World team selection and in top two of everyone's top loosehead props.
What about then.
Jenkins & De Villiers & Lobbe
4
Woodcock & Donald & McCalman
Better?

So are we saying this deal now? If so, i do need a little more without palmer/lawes coming and skrela out injured.
Didn't even think about the combo mate, sorry about that.

Wilkinson >> Myler
Cole << Franks
mate its a gain both ways it's not pants and myler is no slouch, over 1000 points and over 100 caps for saints, averaging over 10 points a match for the saxons. Only kept out of the Elite squad because of Wilko & flood - he's not to be sniffed at.

Then this.
Skrela + Bonnaire + Williams + Roberts + Kirchener
=
Lambie + Brown + Guildford + Davies + Poitrenaud
The top deal started it all off and it just got worse and worse.

Re: Biarritz Olympique - WRL Season 5
Morning, Im going to have a good think about that deal mate. Firstly though, it definately can't go through until thursday. At first glances, maybe remove the skrela and kirchner bits. Not sure I need skrela, although a good player and minus the kirchner takes a gain away from both sides to level it up

I just can't get too excited about it mate, gains to both sides, but I like Kahui and halfpenny alot. All but one of the gains are to back up players. Anything for cole, that doesn't include kub/steen/Stevens?

You have and I mentioned the amount of mixed ratings. Some don't rate Jenkins because of injury and others seem to not be sure about these two so would rather not risk it.
