Little enquiry for now not sure I'd do it

Nice to have you on bored mate (y)

I see this offer links to this page hello inthefastlane, I would have Visser over Wulf that Visser kid has been very good this season. I would have Corbisiero over Jacobsen, very good player Corbisiero but Jacobsen does have Scottish caps which is a bonus. Also I will probably start Domingo and Nel at prop.

Would do it only if your actually keen?

Could I make an offer to you myself if possible, something like this maybe.

Polotu Nau & Whitelock & Marty
4
BDP & Williams & Basteraud

Like I mentioned to Bathite looking at the second row and he said Basteraud might not be rated is that true?

Thanks, confirm it on 606 and I guess I will change my squad.

My offer I agree on the Marty bit, but Whitelock to Williams has a big gap Ali has international caps and is an established World class player whereas Whitelock is a young emerging talent.

Nevermind happy with Visser.

Are the three marks the amount of people who did it?

Williams should be higher would you tend to agree, injured and been at Nottingham but on overall status he is one of the best locks in the World on his day. Very good for New Zealand, Whitelock is the next chapter in the New Zealand second row, but like i said to bathite earlier can't underestimate Williams quality and Lambie's also in his case.

Nevermind im sure I will be back soon to improve my team in some areas

Yes I agree New Zealand are a very strong side but still Williams is a class act and has done very well internationally.

But the three you mentioned Whitelock, Donnelly and Thorn are now better. Im going offline now so thanks for the Visser deal. Will leave you with just one more deal just to get in the swing of things to see if im doing it well.

Polotu Nau & Lydiate & Cooper
4
BDP & Lund & Giteau

If not Cooper what about Berrick Barnes?

Giteau not rated either oh dear lol

He is a good player and you would be getting Du Plessis also. Maybe forget Lydiate for Lund for the time being like you said.

Polotau Nau & Cooper or Barnes
4
BDP & Giteau

Would that be better inthefastlane?

Got no issue with BDP, as Bathite has put me through my paces it seems you need to gain and I need to gain if you get what I mean.

Bismark is a class hooker, but players like Mealamu and Poloto-Nau are good players to replace Bismark, even though I will be losing out I know that I could rely on players like Mealamu and Poloto-Nau cause im sure they will be rated on here, but got some weird messages and vibes earlier basically giving me the idea that Giteau might not be rated and the younger players.

Giteau is Australian though lol, you would be getting on paper the best hooker in the World while you get a person who a couple of years ago was along with Carter and McCaw the best player in Rugby. Cooper and Barnes are better at this moment in time of course but you are getting an Aussie back, and it is Giteau and not some cheap player, and you are gaining on Bismark.

Like I said in my first post to every game on this website, I have played sporting games on 606 a while back like three months ago so know how games like this work.

Take my offer into consideration and get back to me again please inthefastlane

Too small, Bismark has been on paper the best hooker in World Rugby while Poloto-Nau is having an exceptional season but nowhere near the level of Du Plessis.

I have got some weird messages on here today, but I guess if you don't want to do it you don't want to do it.

Bathite said if someone rejects an offer don't get knocked back, but I actually feel that sorry to admit, who wouldn't want Bismark Du Plessis and I thought Barnes for Giteau yes you would lose out but there are far worse players than Matt Giteau people could offer in return, Giteau has been on the top of the tree for years, a mediocre year shouldn't knock people's views back.

Anyway nearly 12.00 another good thing about this site is the time, no restriction which is good.

Thanks inthefastlane will check again tomorrow im sure.

Hello again just thinking a bit.

Poloto-Nau & Barnes

Rees & Giteau & 10 million

Thanks mate

Have you got a prop I can loan for 2 weeks in exchange for Pisi or David?

No fan of Steenkamp myself

Can't see it. He's played about 5 games in a year and Beast is a much better scrummager and in sublime form.

Franks + 1/2p
for
Hayman + Jane?

Swap him for Beale on the ap?

That was the joke...

8m + Shane Williams + Corbs 4 Sclezo + Ashton

--------

Not bad, pretty close to be honest. Would prefer a 3 4 2 rather than cash though, unless you can stretch to 14, which gives me enough for my foreign

14 is what i need, thats why i went so specific and not rounded up to 15

not even sure at 14. ashton is one of the few top top class players that clermont have

Yeah i know, but i have to, ashton is top top class and there aren't many in the clermont team. i'm going to think about it, but its not likely im afraid

Yeah i know, its tricky, thats why i took my time at first. ashton just too good to lose this late in the game, especially now that turner has gone

No thanks mate, got the squad sorted out now with some wheeling and dealing. Not looking to lose Ashton, as i said, one of my few top class players and not a fan of williams and ford not big enough over ledesma

August + Guildford 4 Williams + Ford + £8m

No Mealamu starts and Guildford is better than Williams money involved or not, not very keen.

Thanks though inthefastlane

Yes he would only be back-up so I don't want Ford, im happy with Guildford aswell 8 or 10 or 15 im not too keen.

All about the quality in my view not the quantity.

I do have 22 players look at my teamsheet, I have sold three of my injuries off.

Kankowski was injured sold him
Hibbard was injured sold him
Another player injured sold him

I only have Collins who is injured, so I do have a 22 players, plus one who had to be left out, if I buy a centre then two players will be left out so im not experiencing any problems.

I'm interested in Whitelock, Lydiate, Jane and Williams.
Any scope on an offer?

Whitelock & Sheridan & Jane

A.Williams & Woodcock & Guildford

Thanks

Whitelock & Sheridan

A.Williams & Woodcock

Just that bit then?

Im completely gobsmacked by that offer.

Williams not top 25, and Guildford for Wulf you cannot be serious.

That is a joke complete and utter joke.

Skivington + Cussiter + Whitelock
=
Genia + Hooper + Russouw

Enq.

cooper 4 slade in a deal somehow? . . . anywhere?

ok cool mate was just testing the water there.

I am with you on cooper, I think he's possible the most creative 10 in the world at the moment, however his kicking and tackling is no where in the same league as some flyhalves. But on his creativity alone he's def number 2 after carter with in my opinion at the moment wilkinson close 3rd (on his current form)

cheers tough - didn't know slade was injured! he's a hot potatoe that one, could become very good indeed.

Quade is pants.

Ashton + Sclezo + Ledesma 4 Ford + Williams + Corbs + £10m

Alright me old little fire flame, lets set this out in my form as it will make it easier for me sorry...

Ledesma+ Scelzo + Ashton

for

Ford + Corbisiero + Williams + 10 million

That is what your saying isn't it, if so deal.

RowleyFox wrote:Quade is pants.

^^^ hahha

No way TPN is a top 3 hooker, Moore starts ahead of him at international

Ledesma+ Scelzo + Ashton

for

Ford + Corbisiero + Williams + 15 million

Confirm it then mate.

hahah blogs you go on about me loosing top players then you go and do ashton for williams hahahahah muppet

I got 15 million, a better hook and a highly rated Corbs.

Muppet

Prefer Ford and prefer Corbisiero, you know I like Corbs anyway.

yeah corbs & ford are bothe very good and think you were ok on that part of the deal but serioulsy loosing ashton!

You have lost Foden, Elsom, Warburton and Halfpenny so im not complaining

I have gained
Alberts, Henson, Basteraeud, Bekker, contepmi. strettle, and teh almighty bananahan!!!!!!

Exactly point proven.

Henson 0.5/10
Basteraud 4/10
Contepomi 5/10
Strettle 3/10
Banahan 3.5/10

Alberts and Bekker are the only good signings you have made, but you even had to lose Elsom for Alberts which is a step down

agreed Ledesma coming on for 20-30 minute he would be an animal - he's still a great player and unlike other positions around the pitch you can still play front row longer and as long as your experienced in the dark arts (ledesma is) then no probs!!

I still rate him highly

your rating contepmoi one of the best backs inteh world as a 5/10 muppet hahaha
and the other internationals even lower - you know nothing about rugby do you
hahahah

Im not a fan of Contepomi, not a fan of Basteraud way better centres out there, not a fan of Strettle, and Banahan good AP but not international quality.

Henson you know the score W A N K E .

See that you persuaded blogs with that deal! Now that back three looks immense!

how can you continue to say Banahan is not international quality when all he does for england is perform and perform and perform.

He's also consistently one of the top scorers sin the prem year in year out . . .
and simply not rating contepomi is absurd . . . have you EVER watched him play for argentina?
