Tonga'uhia + Tom Johnson + Noah Cato for Andrew Sheridan +Ryan Kankowski + Neil Briggs/Rob Vickers

by Guest Sun 22 May 2011, 3:23 pm

by LukeLovesLuka Mon 23 May 2011, 10:32 am

Mainly interested in:

Woodcock, Kennedy, Pienaar, Bowden, SBW

thumbsup

by LukeLovesLuka Mon 23 May 2011, 11:00 am

Woodcock, Rush
for
Cole, Joubert

===

Think Cole is more valuable being a top EQ, and prefer Joubert....

by LukeLovesLuka Mon 23 May 2011, 11:28 am

If I was to lose Joubert i'd be looking at an out and out 7 in return thumbsup

by LukeLovesLuka Mon 23 May 2011, 12:40 pm

Not convinced on Botes, would much rather have Joubert in my squad.

by **Ozzy3213** Mon 23 May 2011, 1:21 pm

Not sure what I can offer for Woodcock and Botes to be honest mate, as I wouldn't let Pocock go in that deal as I don't see Botes as an adequate direct replacement.

by **Ozzy3213** Mon 23 May 2011, 4:14 pm

I'm struggling to think of a decent offer mate.

by 'Arry Mon 23 May 2011, 4:15 pm

Can't see myself parting with Fourie mate, Barnes is my best player and if I were to lose him I'd need a replacement of similar ability and a gain elsewhere. Feel free to make an offer four Louw.

by 'Arry Mon 23 May 2011, 4:40 pm

The Armitage brothers, Cato, Tiny and Kennedy all interest me

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 10:58 am

Paice and Nieto possibly available mate but will need an eq starter to let Paice go thumbsup

by Sgt_Pooly Tue 24 May 2011, 11:08 am

Are you that bored! lol

PDJ - NFS
Ojo - Need a quality English back
Smith - which Smith???

by Sgt_Pooly Tue 24 May 2011, 11:18 am

Conrad would take ALOT!!! Gives you the AB's centre partnership for years to come and the best 13 about.

I'd want a lot more than Tonga involved Ok!

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 11:41 am

Not one of those EQ would improve my side mate so cant really see me letting Paice go sorry

by Sgt_Pooly Tue 24 May 2011, 11:43 am

Good choice mate....neither you or Pete would get Smith in a reasonable deal lol

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 11:59 am

Zirakashvilli for Nieto? The georgian will be gone for the group stages of the world cup leaving you short with Poux gone with france as well

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 12:27 pm

More likely to let Nieto go mate. Tialata can play both sides which is handy for me.

Would only really let Nieto go for Zika mate if im honest. Could add a squad player like matt cornwall or ben pieneer to the deal if that would swing it?

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 1:41 pm

Sorry mate not going to let a key player go to improve on my back up TH thumbsup

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 2:38 pm

Hook for SBW?

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 2:56 pm

Hernadez has barely kicked a ball in the last 18 months mate classy player but very injury prone. I use Hook at 12 so would need a replacement there so really only looking at SBW from you mate

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 4:05 pm

Sorry mate with Maps of to Japan his rating will definately fall so no interest in losing one of my star backs for him.

by SirJohnnyEnglish Tue 24 May 2011, 4:47 pm

sorry mate would only let Hook go to that crusaders combo Whistle

by CJB Tue 24 May 2011, 5:06 pm

As I recently said I need top quality English in return?

by LukeLovesLuka Tue 24 May 2011, 5:57 pm

Joubert, Poit and Allen will be key for me during the WC cup so will need big offers thumbsup

by CJB Tue 24 May 2011, 10:28 pm

Spies + Perugini 4 Woodcock

by CJB Tue 24 May 2011, 10:41 pm

Sorry beleive Monye is better than 3 you mentioned. I need Armitage 4 Skinner added

by CJB Tue 24 May 2011, 10:55 pm

Fourie can't see anything don't rate King enough

Jauzion needs SBW and a gain or Mapasua and huge gain

Deacon + Skinner + Lobbe 4 Kaino + Armitage + Kennedy
ENQ

by Sgt_Pooly Tue 24 May 2011, 11:00 pm

What for Juan Hernandez fella...

by CJB Tue 24 May 2011, 11:04 pm

I will have a little think and tell you tommorow or you can make suggestions on my page. I'm off (y)

by Sgt_Pooly Tue 24 May 2011, 11:07 pm

I'll leave it, wouldn't include any of those mate sorry

by CJB Wed 25 May 2011, 10:13 am

See spies as better. Let me do It this way as I'Ll find it easier to make an offer; who cannot leave

by CJB Wed 25 May 2011, 10:41 am

Can't see anything then sorry mate will try come up with something.

Nah golding is my EQ

by Steven_Sharks Wed 25 May 2011, 11:17 am

What would you be after from me for woodcock?

by CJB Wed 25 May 2011, 1:02 pm

Have a go then mate! I like woodock 4 perugini + spies but woodcock is unlikely to start

by **Ozzy3213** Wed 25 May 2011, 1:05 pm

Struggling with that one mate as it would leave me light on experienced locks unless you want to do a deal involving one of yours (not Johnson) for Botha.

by Steven_Sharks Wed 25 May 2011, 1:06 pm

Would you do Castrolo for Woodcock?

by Steven_Sharks Wed 25 May 2011, 1:06 pm

Meant to be Castro obviously

by CJB Wed 25 May 2011, 2:27 pm

Tighthead and English players are my main aims

by CJB Wed 25 May 2011, 2:38 pm

Not been particularly impressed with Zirakshvilli when I've seen him, sorry!

by Steven_Sharks Wed 25 May 2011, 4:35 pm

Too add in Kankowski I would need a player of a similar ability. Very little difference between Woodcock and Castro.

Would be thinking of Tom Johnson/Jacques Botes or someone similar

by CJB Wed 25 May 2011, 4:42 pm

The bast of a year ago I would but he isn't the same beast

by CJB Wed 25 May 2011, 4:54 pm

by Steven_Sharks Wed 25 May 2011, 4:55 pm

Woodcock and Hart

for

Castro and Briggs

Then I am not losing out on EQ

by CJB Wed 25 May 2011, 9:18 pm

Castro....

by **Ozzy3213** Wed 25 May 2011, 9:21 pm

Sorry mate, but I don't see any real value in that deal for me so am going to pass.

by **Ozzy3213** Wed 25 May 2011, 9:29 pm

What would you reckon to Botha and Mercey Schofield and Botes?

That is not a definite offer, just sounding you out as whether I would be able to do it would be dependant on another deal I am considering.

by **Ozzy3213** Wed 25 May 2011, 9:42 pm

I'm struggling to come up with something, my brain hurts with all the offers today!!!
