Does nobody look at my budget anymore, I have no cash

That's not even feasible!

I'm no interested in losing Servat, and the previous offer was severly under par.

Palmer is an England starter and Hudson is a quality EQ player whilst others are away, so doubt it.

Hipkiss isn't worth the losses

Couldnt lose anything in the front row starting off mate.
Would happily do a 3 for 1 if its depth your worried about.

Myler + Downey + Sorenson = Steyn?

Fair enough mate

I'm interested in

Fearns, Wilson, Mercer, Carraro, Donald, Woodburn and Perenise

I'll have to have a further look into some of my player first, as not sure how they are all rated. In regards to Brady and Imoliek, i don't see any advantage i have in letting them go. Both great prospects but wouldn't get a lot for them at the moment. Sheridan is avaliable but is one of the players i'm happier with at the moment.

Enquiry
Wilko and Buckley
for
Donald and Wilson

Not looking to lose Smit unless it improves my squad, and I don't see your offers doing that.

Not interested unless it comes with a sweetner fella.

Beech + Heathcote

for

Lambert + Clegg?

Gaskell and Miller
for
Wilson
--------------

No deal mate. Gaskell and Miller are two top prospects and while Wilson will strengthen my team i can't see any advantage of weakening my team at fullback and lock to do this for a player who is by all means a decent player but not an amazing player.

4 mill for Mercer?

Alright Bathite mate. Would you do Eastmond and Abendanoon for Artymev and Tonks? Good gain at wing for you and goood gain at FB for me

After a gruelling first AP game your squad has picked up the following injuries:

Week highlighted is the week they become available.

Week 7 - Nathan Catt
Week 8 - Dave Wilson
Week 9 - Fran Louw
Week 10 - Simon Shaw
Week 11 - Fran Steyn

Sent you a PM mate.

Attwood involved?

Can keep him till Shaw is fit?

Ayerza for Attwood?

Good negotiating skills

Attwood is hardly the world lol. 4/5th choice for England?

Hit me with something.

How about:

Ayerza + Deacon + Newby

Catt + Attwood + Louw

Enq

Surprised with that tbh, but no probs. I've ran out of ideas and not getting much back so I'll leave it

No probs mate but i have got nothing back apart from no chance & prefer all my 3, where do I go from there lol

Thats me 90% of the time so know the feeling lol

Little interest in Heathcote tbh, I see 36 as future Int 12 so need somebody with similar potential or foreign better quality.

I'd need Attwood involved somewhere too I think. Others like Williams, Woodburn, Catt, Louw, Fearns etc I like

Fearns + Williams for 36? Enq

^^?

Rate 36 a fair bit above Fearns hence the offer, no probs

Lol....fair play

I just feel that Farrell will release the back 3 a bit more to be honest bud and at the moment i'm not a big Banahan fan...he's steady but Short's looking more dangerous.

Not as bad as losing my starting LH,LK,FH and Centre!!

if you could do batty that would be great.

didnt realise he would be in your 23, dont want to take someone like that off you.

how about the academy fella? i need someone till week 11 really when lindsay is back from injury.

Attwood, Williams, Woodburn,

Can't see anything with those players for Williams or Woodburn.....we tried!

Would need to get Louw involved in something for Newby (rate Louw higher)

Appreciate your comments on the matchday thread, and to be honest, I largely agree.

Missed Homer's boot this week and Bowden is sorely missed. I don't mind the Hape/Ansbro midfield but can understand your concern.

I've been trying to sort those positions out but it's proving difficult, not many are up for a deal..

Attwood for Robson?

Improves your lineout beyond sight though?

Hi new Exeter coach here.

Anything for the following?

Attwood, Caldwell, Fearns, Donald, Heathcote, Banahan, Biggs?

Hudson + May
=
Attwood + Barkley

Enq

Umm interested in quite a few players.

Caldwell + Fearns + Biggs + Donald
for
Hayes + Armitage + Sackey + Cruden

?

Fearns + Biggs + Attwood + Hipkiss
for
Armitage + Sestaret + Horwill

Enquiry Only.

Fearns + Biggs + Attwood + Claassens
for
Horwill + Treviranus + Thomas

?

Ah sorry.

Fearns + Caldwell
for
Treviranus + Hayes

Fearns + Biggs
for
Johnson + Sackey

Any of them?

Fearns/Attwood + Bendy
for
Treviranus/Hayes + Nacewa

?

Anything for Fearns and Biggs?

Attwood and Fearns interest me

Haskell 4 Attwood + Fearns

ENQ

Morgan is as seen this week our best 8 while Haskell would be in the EPS possibly starting if he was playing in England. Quite a way ahead of your two. Even Mullan is probably at a higher level than Attwood just about

Big for Biggs.

Im just interested in some Englishman.

Fearns, Biggs and Bendy.

Treviranus + Freshwater
for
Fearns + Catt

?

Spose but like Haskell + Morgan/Mullan is far too much

Anyone else cos I can't lose two of them unless you add someone signifcant
