Mullan for Healy?

How about Mullan and Allen for Eastmond plus Catt?

Like Daly a lot, but not really keen on making any big changes to my squad just yet, might come back to you soon though

Do it with bendy and wiggles for goode and classens

what for Healy?

Hey mate Tonga & Bekker for Healy & ??
?? Doesn't have to be anything much as very interested in Healy

problem i have is, i cant really afford to lose another prop...any other player in different position intrest ya??

Not sure where we can do anything. Would need a second row in return for Kennedy and you probably won't let Attwood go. 

Watson could be done for Ranger in a deal.

Can't see anything in that mate.

Don't really want to lose Cruden for Hook

Can't lose Cruden for Hook mate, it's a non-starter.

Rate both of those lads higher and both still academy mate.

I don't really need anothe fullback where Watson can play on the wing. Marshall is nailed on at hooker for NZ in the future. Bigger potentials compared to two players who are quite limited in dimensions.

Can't see where a third fullback helps my back three. Unless you're offer Bowe or Ranger or even Dagg I'm quite happy there. Marshall I have faith in that he will come good so doubt we could see eye to eye there.

Not being negative but the lads I would actually be interested in I don't think you want to let go.

Right then I'm interested in Eastmond/Steyn and Bowe or Ranger

Going to say no, Dagg is a better FB but Smith covers more positions, Horwill is younger and better for me than Muller who is due to retire, Strauss is a better hooker than Webber but EQ makes a big difference

Can't see it mate. Would need starting EQ back and without Attwood or maybe Eastmond I can't lose 2 big pieces of my pack
