Nice little flank combo you've got there Pete

by Bathite Mon 26 Dec 2011, 10:38 pm

Loving the chiefs icon! Brilliant

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 29 Dec 2011, 12:53 pm

Be looking at Armitage/TJ for Chuter

by CJB Thu 29 Dec 2011, 12:59 pm

Eerie Claassens could do Freshwater/Sireli for?
Mullan/Kvesic/Benjamin are English I rate really highly so Johnson/Armitage need to be in any deal
Abbott is a good prospect not really sure what I'd do for him; suggest something!

by CJB Thu 29 Dec 2011, 1:05 pm

Centre and Front five mainly!

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 29 Dec 2011, 1:07 pm

Yea I'd take cash for him Pete, make an offer

by CJB Thu 29 Dec 2011, 1:12 pm

Don't really fancy anyone, sorry!

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 29 Dec 2011, 1:20 pm

Didn't think you'd come in that low!

I'd be looking at 12m, gives me solid FB/Wg options, be pretty valuable through Int period with the lack of quality floating about

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 29 Dec 2011, 1:31 pm

I'd be interested to know who you'd get for 12m....lol

I'd go 10m but thats only because I like you Wink

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 29 Dec 2011, 2:00 pm

I think you'd be looking at more 15-18 for said target lol...

I'd do 9m or 7m plus Camacho thumbsup

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 29 Dec 2011, 2:33 pm

Not enough Pete sorry

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 29 Dec 2011, 2:39 pm

Lol...no point selling him on the cheap at this stage

by Bathite Thu 29 Dec 2011, 6:31 pm

biggs could leave, cash? or maybe slade involved

by Bathite Thu 29 Dec 2011, 7:30 pm

i meant henry mate, didn't realise there was another one!

by CJB Thu 29 Dec 2011, 7:59 pm

You've made me better offer than that for them 3 on FB!

Let me know what you want for them. (Exeter Chiefs)

You are eager to get going arent you! Nutley, Artemiev, Elliot and E Waller could move on for the right offer mate. Steffan interests me thumbsup

by Driver Fri 30 Dec 2011, 1:09 pm

Would do TJ for Wallace and Fas

by stnick88 Fri 30 Dec 2011, 4:41 pm

what for tui?

by SirJohnnyEnglish Fri 30 Dec 2011, 8:03 pm

Sorry mate after armitage im not sure who else you have that would improve my side at the moment. After a centre but wouldnt want to pay big for Naqelevuki so cant see a deal

by pullthestrings Fri 30 Dec 2011, 11:16 pm

Hello mate, sorry for the delay in replying, been busy with family and that.

Anyway, first of all I'd have to honestly say I'd find it hard to do lengthy deals with you as I'm not clued up enough on the Chiefs. I haven't seen as much AP as I would have liked this season. You'd have to get your salesman cap on and describe the player!

I saw you went to the game on Tuesday - was a good game. Exeter were impressive - made it very difficult for Irish to get momentum. The scoreline flattered them though, with that try that had a massive forward pass! Who impressed you from Irish?

Alex Corbisiero - doubt I could sell. International EQ and likely to start in the 6N.
Max Lahiff - I've heard very good things. Would take a bit, and a decent scrummager.
James Buckland - willing to sell, would like a competent hook to strengthen up my front row.
Matt Garvey - another decent player, probably wouldnt sell.
Declan Danaher - willing to sell. Great servant to Irish but I'm after young English talent or world class talent, Declan seems to find himself in neither category!
Ofisa Treviranus - not sure on this kid - willing to sell.
Alex Gray - not sure on this kid - willing to sell.
Jamie Gibson - really impressed by this guy, as I know you are. I'm going to hold onto him - he looks class. Will he eventually be an 8 - doesn't look like a typical 7...
Jonathon Joseph - couldn't sell JJ - I played with him at school and he's a good lad.
Topsy Ojo - doubt I'd sell.
Delon Armitage - definitely wouldnt sell.
Tom Homer - can't sell. His boot wins game, and is indispensable.
Kieran Low - could sell.
Marland Yarde - could sell.
Anthony Watson - could sell.

From your side I'm obviously interested in Johnson. I was very impressed with your 8 on Tuesday and the 15 (Arscott?) always threatened.

by Sgt_Pooly Sat 31 Dec 2011, 12:11 am

Camacho + 6m for Hamilton?

by Sgt_Pooly Sat 31 Dec 2011, 12:30 am

Seriously?!? No probs

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 01 Jan 2012, 11:21 pm

Cash really, got Grindal available too.

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 01 Jan 2012, 11:30 pm

Young 14m Grindal 6m

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 02 Jan 2012, 10:12 am

No probs

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 02 Jan 2012, 11:53 am

I could loan you Young for the season for a fee if that helps Pete?

by pullthestrings Mon 02 Jan 2012, 12:19 pm

Tom Johnson
=
Nick Kennedy

enq.

by pullthestrings Mon 02 Jan 2012, 12:38 pm

Would need to be decent, I think Buckland is held in higher regard than Alcott/Clark. Johnson/Mitchell involved?

by pullthestrings Mon 02 Jan 2012, 12:44 pm

Peter Short + Tom Johnson + £10 million

for

James Buckland + Nick Kennedy + Jamie Gibson

----

No thanks mate. I can't let Gibson/Kennedy go for cash at this early stage in the season. I would consider:

Peter Short + Tom Johnson + £5 million

for

James Buckland + Nick Kennedy

by pullthestrings Mon 02 Jan 2012, 12:45 pm

Sorry that was meant to be:

Peter Short + Tom Johnson

for

James Buckland + Nick Kennedy

by pullthestrings Mon 02 Jan 2012, 12:48 pm

You have stated you're after a hook and lock, you get both. I'd rather hold onto Gibson for the time being. Can change it to:

Clark + Johnson
=
Kennedy + Buckland + £5 mil

by prop_lyd Tue 03 Jan 2012, 6:41 pm

Only really interested in Johnson and Naq

by stnick88 Wed 04 Jan 2012, 9:31 am

fair offer but going to say no as i have an english tighthead already

by stnick88 Wed 04 Jan 2012, 9:32 am

loosehead rather

by pullthestrings Sat 07 Jan 2012, 9:16 am

Treviranus + Garvey + JJ

for

Johnson + (one of Budgen/Mitchell/Tui - you need a TH) + ???

====

Could change it to simply:

Treviranus + Garvey

for

Johnson + Mitchell?

by pullthestrings Sun 08 Jan 2012, 2:27 pm

Treviranus + Garvey + JJ

for

Johnson + Mitchell + Steenson

==

I thought I have replied, sorry. I'm not keen on that. I'm only really interested in Johnson, so that doesn't warrant me losing 2 of my brightest stars.

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 08 Jan 2012, 10:11 pm

Not looking to lose my youth players really Pete

by pullthestrings Sun 08 Jan 2012, 10:31 pm

Treviranus + Garvey + JJ

for

Johnson + Mitchell + Steenson

==

I thought I had replied to this. Would need to limit it to 2 players, so poss:

Treviranus + Garvey

for

Johnson + Mitchell

enq.

by Driver Sun 08 Jan 2012, 10:33 pm

Ignacio Mieres for him?

by Driver Sun 08 Jan 2012, 10:50 pm

Who you willing to deal around?

by Fluxy Sun 08 Jan 2012, 11:06 pm

Hukfanga + Gopperth
=
Camacho + Meires

?

by LukeLovesLuka Mon 09 Jan 2012, 12:08 pm

Do Spurling for cash?

by LukeLovesLuka Mon 09 Jan 2012, 12:15 pm

Was looking at £3-4m to make it worth my while.

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 09 Jan 2012, 12:15 pm

Hamiton for 8m? Very Happy

by pullthestrings Mon 09 Jan 2012, 1:29 pm

Treviranus + Garvey + Yarde

for

Johnson + Mitchell + Short

==

A decent offer. I'll wait to hear back from Nick as I've tabled a deal with him to get Simpson. I'll get back to you. Unless Garvey is substitutable?

by LukeLovesLuka Mon 09 Jan 2012, 1:37 pm

Ok deal.
