Farr-Jones would be costly . . . IC is a weakness for me and HOran would be nice, but I can see you wanting an all aussie back line which would be brilliant so we can rule him out.

N'tmack would be an ok offer but would need something else . . . the only other thing I would possibly do would eb a straight swap for Johnson . . .

Have a think about ti - I am off to the hospital and won't be back until early afternoon . . . but these are the possibles:

NFJ for Johnson
NFJ for N'tmack & something else
NFJ for Tim Horan

all only possibles.

Farr Jones + Meeuws
4
Ntamack + 20m?

are you mad - if you want NFJ - i will be looking for no less than MJ - but at the moment I need to buy some cover there so won't be loosing him just yet - sorry.

I'd need Vickery involved mate

yeah I'd like N'tmack - but not for NFJ & Mealamu even with the £20 mil!

aybe just FJ swap for Ntamack then? Maybe, not overly keen on losing him, so much cover in the backs
--------------------------------------------

Not a chance mate!

NFJ 64 caps, world cup winner, part of the best 3 man combo to possibly play the game with campo & Lynagh

for N'tmack - a decent french center with 46 caps . . .

i hear what your saying but I also have kelleher for that combo as well.

I could let him go for marshall, but I am loosing a world cup winner here - throw some cash in and I may do it??

you see the problem I have is if i give you nick farr-jones then i give you an awesome combo in your back line . . . scary in fact . . .


let me think on it - I am tempted . . . .

I did consider it, yes. What would you be after?

Berbezier?

Not a chance of that I'm afraid mate.

cant believe that we haven't even started yet and already i am into dealing with you lol

ok stretch the cash a bit and I will deal with you . . .

ok go on then

Nick Farr-Jones for Justin Marshall and £10 mil

do you want to confirm that then?


and i will start re-doing my page . . . which takes a while!

so lets take a look at your line up ow then . . . .

farr-jones - Lynagh- Horan

great combo there - so are you going to try for campo as well?

If you haven't realised I have an Australian back three.

And a All Blacks centre partnership, both hard to break.

Might be impossible to get something from me for them especially at centre.

Kirwin would be good but not breaking my Australian back three will win me games along with my centre partnership.

Nah that would be a bit weird.

You wanted them three and I wanted my three, so would be a bizarre move.

Like it mate, but don't think Farr-Jones has 2, just the one in 1991.
