Ok doke, how about

Mujati + Warburton
4
Cole + Robshaw + 3m?

Although Mujati in great form, Cole is rated higher on here and was about 3-5 in the top 10s, whilst Mujati sneaked into some lists around 9th. Not that it matters, as you have Franks, who was 2nd!

Warburton & Gaskell

for

Lawes & Contempomi

----

Can't do that, but would be happy to do

Contempomi for Warburton

I have stock in the centres and Felipe would be a big upgrade on EFS and would save you the cash!

The week that shows is the week the player returns, so for week 9 you have 4 injuries. Hope that makes sense.

Contepomi won't be a top 10 centre, but definately top 15 i would say and does a great job covering 10 as well.

I can honestly say that EFS won't be anyway near that level and would be regarded as a weakness in a team i reckon. Feel free to ask others, but from my experience, anyone not playing international rugby is not massively rated. I had Britz, best hooker in the prem for 2 years, but no one really liked him on here, so i moved him on, so thats a good example of Prem form counting for nothing.

Can't do anything in the front 5, im short there as it is myself!

So, my deal remains

Contepomi
4
Warburton

Post by Bathite Tue 31 May 2011, 11:45 am

Dont think EFS has played at all since the WC. He couldn't even get into the starting team at Bath, was very average for the two years I saw him, always made the wrong option, taking the ball into contact and butchering overlaps. He lost his place to Hape and then sulked.

Fair play to him, he has now had one good season at Glos, but one swallow a summer doesn't maketh!

Felipe is a seasoned int and ageing yes, but if Stade think he is good enough to play ten for them and replace Beauxis, then thats high enough praise indeed!

Ps. Players that 'should be rated' on here, aren't always rated, thats probably the only thing thats annoys me about this game! Me and most of the rugby world think Britz is class, but everyone singled him out as a weakness in my team, so i regrettfully let him go!

As far as a 12 goes, I don't think there is better than Contepomi available, Flutey perhaps, but he has been injured for so blinking long and not a certainty for the WC i don't think.

There is no real rush for a deal, but I do want a 7 and I like warburton, hence the move. Im only caretaking this team, so trying to sort out some of the problems i inherited.

ps. the game tomorrow is game 9, so you will be without 4 injured players, so need 22 available.

The injuries page is at the bottom of the main page, but to help you out:

NORTHAMPTON SAINTS

PlayerReturns
Sam WarburtonWeek 10
Gonzalo CanaleWeek 11
Brian Mujati Week 12
Shontayne Hape Week 13

So in fact, warburton can't even play tomorrow, but contepomi can and would take Hape/Canales place i guess.

Alright mate welcome back Hug

How are things across the ocean?

Time to get into the real business boxing

Skrela is miles better than Slade,, at FH and you need a decent FH. He was mentionted in 207/ITFL's top ten FH's. I'm eagerly interested in Elsom, but I'm desperate for a BS anyway.

Would be interested in Halfpenny and Hape OK

Fair enough, thanks for the shopping list, reasonable and really helpful! All are attainable except Nallet.

Rocky + Hari are my targets in your team, need to tweak my back row.

How about

Waldrom + Alberts + Strettle

Ok fair enough.

I do like Hape, but can't get him involved, as he is injured for so long

Waldrom + Henson
4
Rocky + Myler + 5m

Need a bit of cash, as im losing two international class players and myler isn't close, but i need a back up 10

Mate, I posted the last seasons completed foreign transfers, as a guide to player valuations. Look for it on the main page, near the bottom, its really useful.

You can see there that Louw went for £20m last year!

Let me know about the Elsom and Byrne bids and feel free to put them in one comment on the Sarries page, will make life easier for us both

Cheers

I get your point, but can't stretch to a 3 4 2 if Myler is the other player to Rocky.

Strettle and Stevens both going to the WC, Myler is no way near.

I would be willing to bet Stevens goes to NZ, Johnson rates him and he has proved his ability to play both sides seamlessly, crucial at a WC!

Five props will go

Sheri + Corbs at LH
Cole at TH
Wilson + Stevens to cover both

I love Belly, but he isn't going to be getting another England cap, lets face it. Don't get me started on Tim Payne, he is awful! One of the worst players in the Prem!

Getting back to the deal, I can't lose Stevens, he starts for me, as my Georgian superstar is injured.

Rocky>Alberts, but Alberts isn't a weakness for me, not by a long way, in fact he got signing of the season on here and has been sensational for the Sharks, whilst Rocky has been largely injured.

I love Rocky, ever since his season for Leinster, butI can't justify losing two proven and in form players in Stevens and Strettle for Barritt, that weakens my team overall

Well whatever happens, Stevens is a v.good player and plays both sides and starts for me, so i can't lose him! Sorry buddy!

PDJ is an interesting one, doubt he will start at Saints, but they have proved this year that although their XV is great, they need more depth, especially at prop.

I would probably do that deal if my Georgian wasn't injured, so thats pretty annoying to be honest!

We get a £10m bonus tomorrow as its the first day of the month, so maybe some mileage in the deal left! I'll be back for Rocky tomorrow!

That cash will allow me to heal my prop or buy another, which allows me to let Stevens go potentially

Keven Mealamu

Byron Kelleher
Alesana Tuilagi
Zac Guildford
Clement Poitrenaud

That is a heavy load.

Mujati & Elsom & Burgess & Hartley
4
WP Nel & Brown & Kelleher & Mealamu

Does that sound ok, im sorry but going to have to include some players you may not want, but WP Nel has been on form with Oosthuizen and Brown is established and looking at above comments Elsom might be for sale if im correct? Kelleher rated better than Burgess I see, and Mealamu better than Hartley and with Hore aswell that's a major selection headache you will have at hook.

Ok, thats fair enough with the winger cover. But as I said, the deal needs to be even, 2 gains each I think.

So we either level it up with

DEAL A:
Bekker + Alberts + Strettle + Dixon
for
Thion + Elsom + Barritt + Hore

Or

DEAL B:

Bekker+Alberts
4
Thion+Elsom

and then buy another winger with the cash that comes in tomorrow

OR

DEAL C

Bekker + Alberts + Strettle
for
Thion + Elsom + Barritt + 10m (from your monthly bonus tomorrow)

which allows me to get a winger to replace stretts

Right, im back. So let me get this straight. From your message, it seems you proposed this

Elsom + Thion + Strettle + Henson
4
Alberts + Bekker + Barritt + Twelvetrees

If thats right, I reckon I might stretch to it, maybe with a little cash your end to balance it out, say 5m, as Im losing out on 3 players there for Rocky.

Elsom + Thion + Barritt + Halfpenny
4
Alberts + Bekker + Strettle + Henson

That makes up for the lack of cash i reckon and is a fairer deal. I get your point on Henson, but he covers 4 positions and is a full international, same can't be said for barritt

Yeah, i see rowley has been chatting. He does tend to be a bit dramatic. To be honest, im gutted to lose bekker, one of the best lineout locks in the business and i don't really like thion, will be looking to improve on him, but there is very little quality left in foreign locks.

Henson is an opinion splitter, but his versatility is crucial in this game, especially with injuries.

Strettle has had a brilliant season, has halfpenny even played that much? Same goes for Alberts/Elsom.

That offer stinks mate!

I lose three starters for one and two backups.

I would be most willing to take Dowson on loan for 2 weeks, for £2m (£1m a week)

Franks + Alberts 4 Lydiate + Hayman + £8m

Gives you a back row of

6 Lydiate
7 Louw
8 Hari which looks stronger IMO
