No probs, thought you might have fancied a decent backup 6

Any deal on Eastmond possible?

Can trade but need EQ for EQ and WC for WC (i.e. Parra)

I'd be interested in Daly

Give me a decent list and I'll try and knock something up

Slater, Dickson, Wade could maybe get in something.

I'm just off out but I'll try and think of something unless you do first.

I'd be in for Goode and or Daly for Wasps.

Just being outlandish but how about as a starting point.

Dagg + Fearns + Daly + Steyn
=
Barritt + Pienaar + Medard + Lowe

No worries mate! Just my opinion in your side. Like all game plans it has it's positives and negatives.

Any thoughts on my offer above?

Any thoughts on the counter offer mate? Quite keen to tie up some sort of deal if you're still interested

Not too keen on that one, was more interested in Daly if I lose two centres and I'm losing out on EQ without getting a perk coming my way. And I'm not desperately needing a replacement scrum half if I let Pienaar go. How would you like to revamp my original offer?

I'd rather keep Care mate.

I would say Dagg and Daly, but if I'm losing Barritt and Lowe would want Steyn involved somewhere.

What for Daly and Fearns?

Gibson + Payne

For

Fearns + Daley

Make a offer then.

Beattie + Dagg

= Burger + Weepu?

I know I've probably shifted some players which might hinder interest a bit. But I'm still keen for something on Steyn and Daly if possible. And maybe Dagg if you can chuck him in?

Hook + Alex Goode

for

Banahan + Mealamu?

no chance

for care i would need a 10

Hi Bathite, thanks for the advice  

Would you consider a deal for Elliot Daly?

Definitely don't want to lose 36, can we do something for AWJ

Messam and Kruger for SOB and 6m

Not out of The race for Daly, but might be difficult losing Saili and a ten.

Could we perhaps do something with SOB instead or as well?

what for Olly Barkley?

Anything doing here mate?

deal, can you confirm please

na i'd rather do


Barkley + Healy

=

Mercer + Wenztel?

What if it was just for SOB? Anything for Louw or Salvi?

Counter thought to our Daly offers. Nev in for Faz?

Tui + Burger

for

Dagg?

You can't sell a prop without getting one back CF.

Advice on dealing......

Generally people want the same position back in a deal rather than a random taking a gain and a loss. Ie

Dagg + Fearns

Brown + Heaslip

For example

Any generally people of a similar level! One WC all black doesn't equal two back up AP players!

Sounds like I should stop offering them as throw ins for deals then!

Thanks for looking out mate

Interested in Steyn

Ha, I thought the same when I saw he was listed in the Saxons

I'd be in for Steyn, but honestly depends on how I get on with Prop about a centre. 

Would be worth tapping up Sharks, perhaps. I know Pooly disagrees with me, but I don't think JD2 is 12 and there are two decent 10's to get hold of over there.

Cruden nfs mate

Rather not trade on Smith

Messam, Kruger and Freaun for SOB, Hooper and Steyn

Croft for Daly?

what for Tommy Bowe?

Check your PMs mate

Cheers pal! I owe you one

what for Tommy Bowe?

Could we do a Nev/Eastmond deal?

Yea that would be a help mate, can you knock up a list of players that've been brought into the AP that aren't in the game. I'm thinking Yapp etc

Fair enough, what about Steyn for Nev?

HEC Pool 4 (sorry!)

Scarlets H, ASM A, Racing A, Racing H, ASM H, Scarlets A

Can we do something for Daly and or Salvi
