Matfield for Kelleher + Attwood

What for Matt Stevens?

What for Stevens mate?

What for Henry Thomas and Calum Green ??

Also Thomas is a TH or number 3. So close to all the props being right haha

Made on offer on 606 mate, not sure you saw it

Davies + 8m for Matfield?

Having issues writing on other people's team pages at the moment guys so will answer each here:

Matt Stevens - not for sale at all, but would consider selling Dave Wilson.

I dont want to sell Henry Thomas, think he's a very good prop, but would sell Calum Green, ideally for another good prospect in the youth set up, so let me know who you have for sale.

Driver, Matfield is 34 now, Davies is (with Lawes) the best young lock in world rugby - if I sell Davies it will only be for someone who has more than one season in him.

Pooly what was the offer, think I have missed it!

You still after smit? I'd be interested in Wilson for him

I'll think about the Green and Launchbury swap mate. Not losing Skivington and I'm not interested in those players for Barnes. Would take something better than that to get him off of me.

Halfpenny + Kelleher + Domingo + Lua

Bowe + Barcella + Waldouck

Enq

Yea they do mate....number 1 lol

Chris, just reading your convo with Mat, and have to say to you, seriously Lualala is gash mate. His hands are terrible and if you look at Cardiff Blues back play this season a lot of attacks stop with him!

I can't see Manu being marked down after his season mate.

Could you add any of Davies, Stevens, Davies, Attwood, Clark, Kearney, Messem, Dowson.

And I'll add something my end?

Think that would be a deal mate

Not losing Smith and Bowe in the same deal!! Ahh

Kruger for Attwood on top of the orig without Walds/Lua?

Elsom for Pocock is not a goer for me mate. I fI lose Pocock I would need another openside included in the deal.

Chris I would not swap Gray for foden or Ashton. That's why I paid so much for him. What for kelleher?

How about Waldouck + Kruger for Lua + Attwood on top? Get an English player each and you get the 5 you need!

Who of
Mine do you want for Attwood ?

Let's talk about what you want for Parisse then?

Davies and Parisse for Houghard, Donnelly, Kankowksi and Bonnaire

You put on the homepage that he is for sale!

Petes give me second thoughts on Lua lol. Think I need English back mate or a different gain. Not sure I want to give you the best back 3 in the game!

Had a think make it Kearney/Walds and you've got a deal mate

What for kearney

Sorry Chris I can't do it with Lua involved. Barcella is back in training now so might be worth keeping him as Domingo might not make WC.

Willing to negotiate but not with Lua. The list I like is above.

Would need to be pretty big mate as he's my main man at loose head and will be a big player for me next season

Don't see any as out and out FB's and all higher than Kearney mate sorry. We were so close!!! Lol

Rob Kearney + Thomas Domingo

for

Lee Byrne + Cian Healy

I don't that would be any good for my side mate, seem to be hitting a brick wall!!!

Waldouck + Kruger

Lua + Attwood

Is an added bit I'd do with losing an similar standard English player each. Also gives you a 5 which you just don't have.

Can you tell I'm typing on phone lol....that was awful!

Had a wee think and I'll def deal if the above is added. Stick on confirms if happy mate...I'll cry when I lose Bowe tho lol

Alright mate, if I was to lose Barnes it would have to be something big. The players of yours who interest me are Stevens, Manu, Dowson and Attwood.

I'd need english back and preferably a sh

Any idea of what your budget is?

Anything we could put together for Dowson, Kearney and Contepomi?

Thought you'd gone missing!!! Lol

Go on then mate, stick on confirms

Dowson + Aguero
for
Crane + Dermody?

If Phillips leaves I would like to add Kellaher to the deal. Perhaps Kellaher for kankowksi added to the original deal?

Hi Chris

If you are ever getting rid of Attwood give me a chance to beat the offer you receive from anyone

Chris you'v just had your budget down at 61 but i'v just done the maths and this comes out

26.5 (Budget as per Pete on 14/3)
+ 3 (Win v Wasps)
+3 (W v Sale)
+3 (W v Toulouse)
+1 (L v Newcastle)
+1 (L v Irish)
+3 (w v Quins)
+3 (w v Leeds)
+1 (L v Glaws)
-1m for signing of James Craig
+6 (7th place in league)
+8 (Heino runners up)


=57.5m

your last foreign transfers wernt included in Petes last budget update so your less another 25m!

Should be 32.5m!!!!

:huh:

Could always tweak and I'll add cash?

Barcella + Waldouck + Kruger + 15m

Domingo + Lua + Attwood + Kelleher

let me think on the

Sheridan, Phillips and kankowski

for

Kellaher, Dowson, Contepomi and Kearney

I need to think about losing Sheridan.

Domingo is only 2 years younger lol. No probs, I could a bit of cash instead of Gray on orig deal or we can just leave it?

You could take Lua out too but I'd need Attwood to lose Bowe. We were so close too!!! Lol

CHRIS WHAT FOR ATTWOOD FROM ME???

Chris it's your pick on the player draft...

https://www.606v2.com/t5045-player-draft

Robinson is already gone on the draft mate, you need to read back to see who people have picked.

Albacete is a fantastic player, but I would dispute whether he has been one of the best locks in the Heino this year. He has been a little below his best for me, but still in the top 10 locks in the world.

Make me an offer for Mullan mate and we'll see where we go.

Did you see Stevens is in the Saxons squad? I reckon he might oust Corbisiero form the World Cup squad.
