What for Kelleher?

by Steven_Sharks Wed May 25, 2011 5:40 pm

Alright man

the

Phillips + Sheridan + Kankowski

for

Dowson + Contepomi + Kellaher + Kearney

deal is still on if your happy with it if Nick confirms my deal with him for Woodcock.

Just keeping you in the loop

by 'Arry Wed May 25, 2011 6:16 pm

Launchbury for Green is a deal mate

by 'Arry Wed May 25, 2011 7:22 pm

Alright mate, good deal we did there! Would you do Benn Robinson for Matt Stevens?

by prop_lyd Wed May 25, 2011 11:33 pm

What would the offer be with regards to peel then?

by Sgt_Pooly Thu May 26, 2011 12:04 am

Fancy a deal for Attwood Chris? Maybe include Bowe in something bigger.

by Sgt_Pooly Thu May 26, 2011 9:30 am

Robshaw + Kruger + Domingo

Dowson + Attwood + Barcella

Enq

by Sgt_Pooly Thu May 26, 2011 10:11 am

Make an offer mate, most available. Don't rate Phillips at all, he lost his place in the O's team near the end of the season. Move away might help him

by **Ozzy3213** Thu May 26, 2011 12:19 pm

I see you are well stocked for N8's but not so well stocked at hooker. Qhat do you reckon to Matthew Rees for Ryan Kankowski?

by CJB Thu May 26, 2011 9:27 pm

Anything for Callum Clarke?

by Guest Fri May 27, 2011 7:04 am

What for jdv

by Guest Fri May 27, 2011 7:05 am

What for jdv

by CJB Fri May 27, 2011 7:52 am

Thought he be handy in the wc :L

Clark 4 Percival + Mercer/Ovens

by **Ozzy3213** Fri May 27, 2011 8:23 am

I'm sure you would mate, but not after swapping an 8 and certainly not JVN

by Driver Fri May 27, 2011 11:56 am

I'm really only interested in Wilson from that list mate

by prop_lyd Fri May 27, 2011 5:30 pm

Nope sorry! He's hopefully going to be my mainstay when others are @ w.c!

by CJB Fri May 27, 2011 6:37 pm

Any chance of Domingo + Sheridan in a deal involving Golding

by Sgt_Pooly Fri May 27, 2011 11:23 pm

2m for Cau Cau....get the pie monster back up North!

by 'Arry Sat May 28, 2011 9:25 am

Not interested in Wilson mate, sorry. What for Laulala and Watson?

by Driver Sat May 28, 2011 9:28 am

How about James Phillips + Shane Gereghty + Dave Wilson for Matfield + Lemi

by Sgt_Pooly Sat May 28, 2011 10:35 am

He's still a bit of a liability in defence but looking slightly better lol

What do you want for Domingo?

by Sgt_Pooly Sat May 28, 2011 10:45 am

I wouldn't offer anything stupid as his injury is pretty serious. Saying that they reckon he's still 50/50 for WC.

by 'Arry Sat May 28, 2011 10:54 am

No mate, not looking to go over the top for Watson.

by CJB Sat May 28, 2011 11:07 am

Any chance of Domingo + Sheridan in a deal involving Golding

by Sgt_Pooly Sat May 28, 2011 11:11 am

Knee injury.

Only reason I want him is all of my front rowers are small as is Domingo. I actually rate Barcella higher as he's a destructive scrummager but he's quite tall.

I thought he'd suit your front row better as Hayman, Webber, Hartley are all big guys.

No probs if not.

by 'Arry Sat May 28, 2011 11:13 am

I'd probably swap Chambers for Watson.

by **Ozzy3213** Sat May 28, 2011 12:41 pm

Wouldn't do two top young English players who will start during the World Cup for a foreign squad player.

by 'Arry Sat May 28, 2011 2:27 pm

I'm more interested in Hamilton to be honest. How much cash for him?

by Steven_Sharks Sun May 29, 2011 12:03 am

SJE is a oh dear for starting bidding wars for Championship players.

Burgess is a talent. Another season in the Championship and his will get his way into AP. Perhaps with a few sevens caps in between. Halavatau could be great. Only recently converted to TH from the Back row. Worth the 2 mil gamble

by Guest Sun May 29, 2011 12:21 am

How can you not rate Scott Hamilton ??
Pure player. Understands the game and so consistent. Every year he delivers.

After Ashton and sivi ( never rated him but lots do) he would stroll into your side. Seen savea this year?? Apparently lacks appetite for training and has discipline issues. Bloody islanders he is such a freak

by 'Arry Sun May 29, 2011 11:39 am

Hi mate, sorry I meant to post the Hamilton thing on Mat's page! Sorry if I confused you there. Not really interested in the deal you suggested and not that fussed about Ben Jacobs! I'm really interested in Dave Attwood and Manu.

by 'Arry Sun May 29, 2011 1:29 pm

Yeah I know I came asking about him but I wasn't looking to sacrifice that much for him, he's a pretty average player, only really wanted him as back up.

by 'Arry Sun May 29, 2011 1:42 pm

He did have a good few seasons, however he's playing league 2 in South Africa and no one will hear anything of him mate.

by Sgt_Pooly Sun May 29, 2011 6:27 pm

2m for Watson and you can have Hooper

by stnick88 Sun May 29, 2011 6:30 pm

what for wilson?

by stnick88 Sun May 29, 2011 7:00 pm

wana keep tait, reckon moving to tigers will help him and he's a good bench option as he covers so many positions.

by Sgt_Pooly Sun May 29, 2011 7:16 pm

Couldn't lose the future England No8 for somebody playing SA 2nd division mate

by Sgt_Pooly Sun May 29, 2011 7:28 pm

Not sure, not alot. Just thought 2m was 0.5m more than you'd get to release. I thought he was semi retiring.

by stnick88 Sun May 29, 2011 8:06 pm

name a few youre interested in and we'll see

by stnick88 Sun May 29, 2011 10:12 pm

also interested in geraghty if u could put him and wilson in a deal

by stnick88 Mon May 30, 2011 2:11 pm

botes
stowers
hala'ufia
andy powell
james
mapusua
bastereaud
kirchner

by stnick88 Mon May 30, 2011 3:06 pm

thinking about it not after geraghty.
just wilson. want to keep tait though. any other ideas?

by prop_lyd Mon May 30, 2011 4:28 pm

He's not too bad, is that in a deal involving him and peel?

by prop_lyd Mon May 30, 2011 4:41 pm

WOuld you offer anything else on top?

by 'Arry Mon May 30, 2011 6:54 pm

Good offer but I have no interest in Dan Caprice, Chris Lewis-Pratt and Matias Aguero at all. Also it would have to be a better offer to get Clegg off me, the boys abit special!

by **Ozzy3213** Mon May 30, 2011 6:56 pm

Interested in Kankowski, would you do him as a straight swap for 36?

by **Ozzy3213** Mon May 30, 2011 7:09 pm

Mullan not available mate, think he will really kick on this year.

by **Ozzy3213** Mon May 30, 2011 7:35 pm

I'll leave it then mate, I have an offer on the table of £24 million for 36 and I can use that to get a player of the same or better standard than Kankowski.

by prop_lyd Mon May 30, 2011 7:57 pm

Can't let Robinson go sorry, hoping he doesn't go to the w.c for this game, even though he should!!

by **Ozzy3213** Mon May 30, 2011 9:02 pm

No mater I wouldn't. A appreciate that Kankowski is an international, but he doesn't seem that highly rated in this game, and the fact the 36 is English and will be available during the WC balances it out for me.
