Waiting List
1. Sam
2. pullthestrings
3. Bathite

To be fair think it would be best to have 1 end of October start of November and then a 2nd one before the 6 nations start.

I think that is far too many transfers.

Its less then we have had any season so far I think?
Need to keep some foreigns in the league as in season dealing is notoriously hard with all of us looking for the better deal

But we have had 3 in the summer then another one in november?? That is far to quick for me

I Think personally you should be able to trade 1 foreign signing in receive no money for him and then get the opportunity to pay in for another at some point. it is a good way of removing players that are in the game that dont really play and to keep squads current.

That's an interesting point - keeps numbers down and puts more players in foreigns

Thats fair enough just checked and we had our foreigns the start of Dec and March according to the game rules on 606 last year. Although think I remember we brought the 2nd window forward to strenghten squads for the 6 nations.

I think we're getting too many, we need to think of the future of the game. Another later in the year then one in March time will be pretty fair I think.

We def don't need another now, if we released one from our squads I'd just release a rubbish foreigner and get a good quality player in, wouldn't really help with the dwindling foreign market.

Pooly the foreign releasednwould have to be someone purchased through the foreigns so i could not release for example tuitopu. Thought it might add an edge

I cant think of one i would release but for example some may have released guildford last year thinking he was gone and now would be regretting it. Kind of a gamble.

you may get rid of Barcella as he is always injured and then get in someone else and Barcella go on to fulfill his massive potential
I think it could be interesting

I think it should really be up to each manager to keep his own squad current. If you have players your not using you should be looking to move them on in-game or just release them rather then getting an extra foreign.

Think 1 Nov/Dec and 1 Feb/Mar is more then fair enough

i agree with steve, our squads are massive dont need another foreign untill 6N. soon all decent players will be gone and foreigns will become pointless and we'll end up buying players that wont get near the first XV.

eliot sapolu is a clown his tweets are ridiculous he just moans 24/7.

Tuitiou is garbage though Matt so you'd basically be on win/win. Barcella is training again and in French squad so I obviously wouldn't release him. Pump idea imo.

Tuitupou isn't garbage. Very decent centre option.

Sure Matt would let him go mate, get in there

Pooly read before commenting. As i said I could not release tuitopu as he was not a foreign signing in the game.

My point was Barcella is massively injury prone but a great player. you may decide to release him and purchase someone else knowing he loses value when out injured.

Someone else may decide to then purchase him as a foreign and then he comes good and your gamble has not paid off.

Have you not been fed today pooly. a bit touchy

I have actually turned down steve for tuitopu Pooly as i rate him as a 12. hard running and good defender

I was thinking that Matt.

Nag mate, just playing volleyball so jumping in fast.

Womens Beach Volleyball??

Having to keep a food diary this week for a nutrionist who has come on board at Chester.

This might be the healthiest week on my live as I believe there's extra fitness work for poor diets

Whos watching womens vollyball?!

Were did the humping smiley go?

I wish, was Station vollyball.....the only women that played looked like hippogrottapigs...

See Van der Linde has gone to the Lions, good prop CJ. Should help them out a bit up front

Just a bit injury prone, barely played for the Stormers since going back there.

Right guys it's job interview day so I should be on this afternoon after it. I'm looking for a lineout operating forward

Best of luck mate

Guys: ledesma, has he definately retired now??

Post WC I think Prop

Can't find confirmation that he has mate.

Also cheers Pete , Waiting on a phonecall this afternoon to see if i get it!

Bring back the hump!

Should I release him now then??

I would mate hes worth 2m to you as a current international right now. You get nothing for retirements

It's a gamble though, what if post World Cup he decides to hang on for another year?

I wouldn't for the sake of 2m

I thought we could still release retirements? I've just done Lewsey for 1.5m and seem to remember players in the past too.

If the player has officialy retired you get no compensation Pooly. Was removed the start of last season I think? So if Lewsey is retired you get nowt

Yhea I know I took a big knock with that with Vickery and Grewcock and now Ledesma that's all of the experience gone!!

And just so you guys know i'm not letting Williams go!!

Didn't notice Nalaga is in the Fiji team this weekend vs the AB's.

"It's no secret that we're big fans of Napolioni Nalaga. Once the most devastating attacking force in France, the drama that prevented his return to Clermont was worthy of day-time television. Estranged lovers, a mysterious accident, a pre-arranged marriage gone wrong, a overbeing mother and a village chief holding him captive...it was a true soap opera, Fijian style. Now he's back. Twice the Top 14's top try-scorer, Nalaga is all power and speed. If he gets a sniff of the line with some space to work in, he's near-impossible to stop."

Looking for a hooker and some back rowers guys.

One of the best in the world when firing, one of my fav wingers.

Quick question about the World Cup and when players will be available in this game.

Are all players in WC squads unavailable until the conclusion of the tournament, or do players come back to their clubs as their teams get knocked out?

I'd say as they come back Pete, doesn't make sense for me to lose say Tincu until England beat the AB's in the final a month later

Id say as they come back mate. But all players should be getting 2 to 3 weeks rest. I will be marking any side down that goes with world cup players without giving them a decent rest

Fellas, I really need a hooker who is available during the WC, a replacement blindside flanker, a number eight who can just be a squad player and a fly half.

So you say......daily lol

sorry pooly

Only kidding mate....I think most get what your after though, might be better making offers to teams to get things going

Going back to SJE's point. Players who play a lot of world cup rugby need a rest. But players who may go and only get one or two games can be thrown straight in from my point of view. From my point of view Players like Francois Louw, Alasdair Strokosch, Richie Vernon and Rhys Preistland example may not even get a start at the World Cup so I wouldn't see a problem in him jumping straight back in.

I would however consider it to be the job of the team playing the WC player to make it clear how much game time a man has had and shouldn't leave it up to managers to research how much every player has played at the world cup

I agree Steve, how much they have played at the World Cup will have a bearing in predos for me.

Thats fair enough Steve. Havent much problem with world cup squad players coming back in but 1st team starters will be a serious mark down

hopefully for me Tonga'uhia, Castrogiovanni wont get out of group stage so will be available early on.
