Transfers:

Anything for Teo'o or Beale? Would include Dunbar plus others?

Dunbar and Foden + Odogwu for Teo'o/Beale and Penaud?

Really like Manoa mate but don't think he's the same player as he was at Saints.

Moore + Bast
=
Coles + Tupou + Riccitelli

Sorry mate I didn't even see that. It isn't tempting though I am afraid.

although I rate Bast, not sure he fits in my midfield as Nonu is my starting 12.

Would need Beale involved to let Coles go really.

Did we get anywhere with Sam Jones mate?

Something around Moore?

What about Jones/Teo/Beale? If we can figure out the EQ

You're right on George!!

Start with Teo for Campagnaro, let me know what EQ you'd be interested in and I'll have a think

Other players I'm keen on are Franks,Manoa, Messam, Beale, FTD, Burns, Fickou, Maitland, Peanuad, Chick

George is a complete non starter lol

Coetzee nfs.

others can be.

interested in Damien Penaud, fickou, te'o, maddocks, brown

I need a th and scrum half so who would be available for possibly maestri

For Otere Black and Maunder?

Haven't had a full season from nms so not sure about that one!

if all 4 are to be involved I would need a senior played involved as im only after penaud and maddocks from your academy.

not interested in tibadze or cash.

anyway of getting Fickou involved? I could include Saili?

whats the full deal you are proposing?

think that's too heavily weighted to you mate.

Not interested in letting Lowe go at the moment.

not after cash so would rather take someone out of the deal from my side.

Tupou and Maunder

also interested in messam on a side not!

Skelton probably needs Manoa in a deal. Or a huge gain elsewhere with someone like Pape.

Big fan of Russell, probably FTD and a gain elsewhere

Tipuric is a key starter for me at the moment so don't want to lose him.

I'd need a gain elsewhere

I'd need a tighthead back to consider losing either, and the only one I'm interested in is Franks .. I doubt he's available!!

What for Marler, Watson, W Louw and Kaino mate?

==

Hi bud

Can't really lose Marler as I think the drop to your loose heads is too much (no offence)

What about something like

Franks + Messam + Te'o + Maitland
=
Louw + Kaino + Barritt + Watson

?

Who do you have available mate?

Pretty much mate, not sure where to go though. The guys I like are positions I'm strong in.

Keen on Sam Jones mate.

Sam Jones, Damian Penaud and Dominic Bird for Mallinder, Mulipola ?

No worries mate, think I have to keep Mallinder as have too many EQ in my back row if I had Jones in there as well.

Francis and Parling maybe, although would prob need Franks involved for Francis

Would you be interested in just Mulipola for Bird?

maitland, fickou, messam or waldrom?

fair offer but Ewers is an EQ starter whereas Waldrom would be back up, so doesn't quite work for me.

Wouldn't sell Launchbury mate.

yeh I'd deal on that I think.

For Parling, prob a lock back and EQ in a deal. Not sure I can see anything for Parra, he's in great form, quite like to keep hold

interested in Penaud and Fickou

Im interested in Penaud - would do Odogwu and Tyler Morgan for him?

Not sure mate.

Parling +

Manoa + Penaud/Armand/Jones

Riccitelli straight swap for Penaud?

Riccitelli straight swap for Penaud?

Would need bench EQ for Spencer, maybe interested for a deal with Lahiff?

Not keen on losing Haley really.

Interested in Manoa, Twelvetrees and Penaud

Riccitelli and Maunder still interest you?

Penaud is my main interest if we can do anything

fair enough. think we may struggle then as he is the only academy player i'm interested in.

Are you still interested in Bennett?

Anything on this one mate?

Name some players, see what we can do there.
