Welcome back, I hear you were in charge of my current club previously! I'm CJ, currently of Sarries

23.5m budget

1 Foreign in June & 1 in July

Welcome back Luke mate
Anything doing for Kahui?

Cowan-Dickie for one of my young guns? Not Spencer

Of those Smit is my most expendable- still a big player though. Not sure who I'd want to cover for it- Cowan-Dickie but that's not an even nearly fair straight swap.

Biggy for BdP??

Hanks, Hayes, Baxter and Mieres, anything for these players mate?

Berrick Barnes possibly?

If Pooly gets Bismark, that Leicester team is looking more and more insurmountable...

Ford def nfs.

If you dropped that I'd consider, losing 2 EQ would be big loss especially as in England squad.

I'll leave it there then as Ford nfs

Luca, Bismark may be >> Care ATM but as a Quins fan I biasedly think his worth will rise sharply over the next 12 months. Still don't sell Bissy though. I'm not going to deal for now, sorry

Those ratings were awful by the way....who's Lightfoot Brown????? Youngs is in England squad!!!

Anyway....Ford nfs

No probs...got a great academy by the way

I'm interested in Trevianus, Steffon, Cruden and Nacewa if you can see any possible deals?

The only one of my players i don't really want to lose is Rob Miller. Apart from that all of my players are availiable for the right deal So if you can see anything?

Wilko and Burger
for
Cruden and Armitage?

I can't include JD for Trev.

I could give you a gain at 9.

Peel for Thomas??

Would give you the Peel-Wilko combo that won me a number of games this year.

Any thoughts on

Peel, Wilko and Burger
for
Thomas, Cruden and Armitage

Thats way to much of a loss for me mate.
3 big losses for one gain would be stupid for me to do.

Cruden is better than Wilko.
BUT
Peel is miles ahead of Thomas.
Burger is world class, Steffon is not.
Davies is a probable lions starter, Sackey is well gone.

So i see that as 3 losses for one gain.

I put Burger for Steffon in the orignal offer as attempt to make it even. But if you prefer Steffon fair enough.

Cruden and Thomas
for
Wilko and Peel

Luke Cowen-Dickie?

Ok will put it on confirms

Now you have Afoa- anything for Mitchell or Cowan-Dickie?

Welcome back to the league Luke. Hope you're keeping well - seem to remember you were going into business with your mum?

Anyway, while I'm here, Mitchell = £10 mil?

What for TJ pal?

Spurling and Slade?

I'm good - things are going well at work so just cracking on with that. Rugby pre season has already started as well which is intense.

I run a football league - https://www.606v2.com/f134-fantasy-european-league
A few of the old boys are there (Guv, Kam, Hodgey) but there are some new lads. They rate the likes of Neymar, Pastore, Gotze, M'Villa as world beaters whereas we still rate others (Puyol, Essien, Tevez).. makes for interesting predictions!

Let me know about the offer

Get Bissy involved?

Mitchell instead of Phillips?

You get cash for Freshwater retiring (probably be 7m)

I'm lost.....no interest in Phillips, I'd just release him anyway.

If not Mitchell, Tui + Cowen-Dickie?

If you stick Freshwater on releases page I'll sort out cash for his retirement

Where are we??? Think we were nearing a deal...

I agree Bis is quality but I'm giving away 3 EQ Ints and getting Phillips back who's not a good player.

Who would you add to Bismark? I'd deal on Mitchell now

Deacon + Lowe + Webber

BdP + Tui

Deal?

Got there after a week or so lol

If you're still interested in Mafi mate would be willing to look at something like;

Mafi + P Hodgson + Mercey
=
Deacon + Mieres + Mitchell

?

I've got three 8 that's not too many lol? And plenty of flankers. Could lose Hala'ufia for scaysbrook on top of the above?

To tidy uo my mess from earlier, I was suggesting;

Hala'ufia + Mafi + P Hodgson + Mercey
=
Scaysbrook + Deacon + Mieres + Mitchell

?

Any interest in the above mate?

Also have some interest in Lowe/Kahui, could give you a winger for either of them?

I could chuck Jane in for Kahui somewhere, could we incorporate it into the offer above and drop another component of it?

Freshwater has retired mate.

If you post the players who've retired in release page I'll give you a fee for them

Jane + ? + Mafi
=
Kahui + Mieres + Deacon

Jane + ? + Mafi (+Mercey)
=
Kahui + Mieres + Deacon (+Mitchell)

What would you be looking for? lol

I was maybe thinking a Hodgson as a halfback for another halback? Or do you have one else in mind?

Any thoughts mate?

That poo-pooed my plans. How about;

Mieres + Mitchell
=
Hodgson + MerCey
