Released from Squad-

Clerc + Roberts
=
JP + Hook

Ok just let me discuss things with Pull if nothing goes I will confirm that.

Sure you don't want to do Thomson 4 Croft.

Croft & Roberts
4
Thomson & Hook

OR

Croft & Ayerza
4
Thomson & Jenkins

?

But Croft don't play 8 and Parisse don't play 6 so that would be stupid.

Im more keen on Croft tbh with you.

Think I have messed you around again.

I want Croft main target that's it finished you won't hear from me again unless you offer something good for Parisse.

I would do any of the above for Croft, Thomson is very good you can ask everyone that yourself. Plus you gain on Hook or Jenkins whichever you prefer.

I like Clerc but im really after Croft mostly to be honest.

Thion for £13m?

Ayerza + Croft + Clerc + Roberts + McCalman + Aplon/Mealamu
=
Jenkins + Thomson + Pietersen + Hook + Parrisse + Poit/Hore

No.

Parisse not going to anybody unless it's Pooly or Prop.

Ayerza + Heymans + Roberts + Aplon
=
Jenkins + Pieterson + Hook + Poit.

Lose out four times, see your willing to lose Croft for Haskell, Thomson has been better than Haskell this season/last season.

Croft 4 Thomson plus something else is fair.

Jenkins 4 Ayerza
Roberts 4 Hook

One of them plus Croft 4 Thomson is a very good offer fluxy.

Your saying Haskell is a better 6 than Thomson

So you would start Van Niekerk over Thomson

Stupid then.

Don't you take in any notice what people say and people's ratings.

Thomson was above Haskell and Van Niekerk, get it your in head that Thomson 4 Croft isn't bad at all

You just mention Parisse but now you say you want other players off of me.

Both your offers tonight have been some of the worst offers I have ever seen mind.

You need to do good, and not involve Parisse.

Ayerza + Roberts + Clerc
=
Jenkins + Hook + JP

Lose out twice.

Pape and Pierre on loan for two more games mate anyways and i think i have already said that 22m is a rip off!

Im going to release Thion now for the 8.5m he is priced at, if you want to offer me a better price, then let me know, but i wont go lower then 11m, otherwise, not worth my while really.

Taking everything into account and I will try and be fair.

Will spilt into two instead of making a long line of players.

Lawes/Hernandez & Ayerza
4
Jack/Slade & Jenkins

Clerc/Mapasua & Ayerza
4
Pietersen/King & Jenkins

If you don't want Ayerza 4 Jenkins, I will do Kelleher 4 Hougaard you may not be keen but ratings and quality wise Kelleher is better mate. Not doing Parisse 4 McCalman and if you want Roberts 4 Hook, you will have to opt for Mapasua 4 King.

Hope that's clear and nice work on media page

Ayerza + Roberts + Hougaard + Clerc
=
Jenkins + Hook + Kelleher + JP

You have just ignored everything I put above, you have just added three gains for you and one for me.

I stated what I want, if you want Roberts 4 Hook you will need to give me Mapasua 4 King where is Mapasua 4 King in that deal nowhere.

It will be any of the above.

Lawes 4 Jack, Hernandez 4 Slade, Clerc 4 Pietersen or King 4 Mapasua

for

Ayerza 4 Jenkins

They are better rated I can't do any better than that or I can forget this whole game and I gurantee I won't be able to make another signing ever.

I have identified the places I want to gain and the players you can gain.

Roberts 4 Hook would leave me with Roberts and King which I don't want, I want Hook with Mapasua or Roberts with Mapasua or nothing.

It's two players fluxy not your whole team.

Clerc 4 Pietersen you seem keen on so I can only see three possible solutions or nothing will happen ever again.

Clerc & Ayerza
4
Pietersen & Jenkins

Roberts & Mapasua
4
Hook & King

Hernandez/Lawes & King & Ayerza & Hougaard
4
Slade/Chisholm & Mapasua & Jenkins & Kelleher

Im not at all im stating what you need from me.

You keep coming but you keep putting terrible offers in.

I have identified gains for us both which is now right for both of us, if you want more you can get stuffed because you ain't having more.

You can't have Parisse, three offers there for you fluxy only one's I can do includes gains for both of us.

If there all no don't bother coming back again, I have tried today and that's what I can see.

Me holding you to ransom!! Your offering just over half price for a player!

Remember wen I wanted skrela. Well I offered £15m and he was injured for 4 weeks. 15m for a 22m player is fair on both teams, 9.5m for an 18m player is a rip off!

Clerc & Ayerza
4
Pietersen & Jenkins

Didn't you say you wanted to do that yesterday or something like that?

You always want too much and all the deals you make to people they hardly ever gain, you have done it with me plenty of times yet you don't seem to think so.

You think Hougaard is better than Kelleher cus he plays a number of positions on overall quality Kelleher is better and everyone knows that. Go by ratings mate and not your gut instinct ratings mean a lot.

Kelleher has tones of New Zealand caps aswell.

Lawes + Ayerza + Roberts + Ansbro
=
Chisholm + Jenkins + Hook + Davies

Roberts and Ansbro at centre no thanks, still would leave me with Roberts and King aswell which I said I didn't want

It's not pleasing it's just what we have done before again and again.

I told you want im looking for, it's still one gain each for goodness sake.

Habana and burger
4
Woodcock and mccaw
?

Two world class players for you and you have ayerza

what about swapping woodcock for heymans?

ok mate, well im not going to look for that deal, rugby and cricket on!!

habana and hape are available, but would be looking at mccaw and or woodcock i reckon.

burger is a very very good replacement for richie if something did happen

Ayerza & Mapasua
4
Jenkins & King

OR

Clerc & Roberts & Mapasua & Ayerza
4
Pietersen & Hook & King & Jenkins

Thanks

Clerc & Roberts & Mapasua & Ayerza
4
Pietersen & Hook & King & Jenkins

Alright deal, seems fair in my view.

About time

Closer but don't fancy giving you the All black 4/5/6/7

Clerc 4 Wulf

Honestly prefer Lydiate. Update your team so I can see what I'm dealing with???

Hook 4 Marty potentially?

ok but put King to IC play Marty at OC?

Lovely you are showing concern for well being of other teams :L

McCaw

Prefer 1/2p

Not for Lydiate

erm you sure the Hook one cant happen

In both occasions prefer my player!!

Think we are stuck....

They are both on loan until game 17 mate, did you know that?

Lawes + King
=
Steyn + Russouw

enq.

Lawes & Croft & McCalman & Hougaard
4
Chisholm & Thomson & Parisse & Kelleher

?

No mate, don't need the cash that desperately, so lets wait until the loan is finished

Would do;

Williams + King
=
Russouw + Steyn

----

Of course you would, both my players are better! It would need to be Lawes..

Could always do.

McCaw & McCalman
4
Warburton & Parisse & 10 million

Haha?

Where do you have Rossouw stop confusing me or update your side if you have him.

Russouw + Croft + McCalman + Hougaard
=
Chisholm + Thomson + Parisse + Kelleher

That's just gone down in my ratings now.

Might of done it with Lawes but now you have Rossouw which means one evens and two gains for you, and one for me.

Screwed.

Just logged on to see you've confirmed my enquiry.. it was ONLY an enquiry mate..

I'm really not sure. I see it as:

Russouw =< Lawes
Steyn >(>) King

I knew that at the time and I was maybe looking to improve my first team by weakening my bench, but King would never start for me whereas Francois might. Could you add anything?

Lawes & Croft & McCalman & Hougaard
4
Chisholm & Thomson & Parisse & Kelleher

Got other thoughts in mind it was only really an enquiry before you go off on one.

But you can see I have got other players in mind at the minute.

Im probably not mate, but no harm in getting prices. Think Toulon are after Bekker anyways, not the frenchmen

Sorry what I said the other day was all I'd stretch to

What was it :L
