At last lol, I'll stick on confirms

by pullthestrings Fri 06 Jan 2012, 11:51 am

I'm a bit short at back row as it is... what about

Simpson + Varndell + Mafi
=
Armitage + Garvey + Gray

enq.

by pullthestrings Fri 06 Jan 2012, 12:06 pm

Simpson + Varndell + Birkett
=
Treviranus/Gray + Garvey + Spratt/Thompstone?

enq.

by Fluxy Fri 06 Jan 2012, 12:36 pm

What for Simpson buddy?

by pullthestrings Fri 06 Jan 2012, 1:13 pm

Garvey and Armitage
Simpson and Birkett

I'm giving away far too much there...

Really keen on Simpson, hope we can sort something out..

by pullthestrings Fri 06 Jan 2012, 3:32 pm

Simpson + Birkett
=
Garvey + JJ?

enq.

by Sgt_Pooly Fri 06 Jan 2012, 3:56 pm

I'm trying to keep a strong core but have loads of youngster coming through....could go massivley wrong like somebody in our other game but taking a punt!

by pullthestrings Fri 06 Jan 2012, 4:32 pm

It's a tempter... Garvey and JJ are two of my brightest stars though.. Rolling Eyes

by Fluxy Sun 08 Jan 2012, 8:45 pm

Hudson + Lipman + Pilgrim
=
Wentzel + Poff + Young/Simpson

Enq

by pullthestrings Mon 09 Jan 2012, 11:48 am

I really am a little uneasy losing Garvey and JJ. Are we able to substitute JJ?

So something like:

Simpson + Birkett
=
Garvey + ?

The reason being I feel Garvey and JJ are rated. Whilst Simpson is rated, I don't think Birkett is and shows no signs of ratings improving. Whilst it might be hypothetical, JJ and Garvey's ratings may sky rocket if selected for the EPS.

by pullthestrings Mon 09 Jan 2012, 12:08 pm

Ansbro, Hape or Armitage?

Thought you'd say that. I'm not sure the deal warrants including a full international.. Noon/Geraghty/Spratt?

by pullthestrings Mon 09 Jan 2012, 12:39 pm

Other option would be Mafi, for which I could then include JJ.

by pullthestrings Mon 09 Jan 2012, 12:59 pm

Would struggle to lose Evans in addition to Garvey, as I can't see an adequate replacement in your ranks.

by pullthestrings Mon 09 Jan 2012, 2:12 pm

Simpson and Mafi
for
Garvey and JJ

==

Cool. We got there in the end. We'll see come the end of the 6N whether this was a good decision...

by Bathite Mon 09 Jan 2012, 2:15 pm

Simon Taylor or Skirving for BS?

by **Ozzy3213** Mon 09 Jan 2012, 2:20 pm

Hell of a deal you've pulled off to get Garvey and JJ mate clap

Fair deal for both imo, got there in the end!

by **Ozzy3213** Mon 09 Jan 2012, 3:09 pm

I guess we all look at players differently, but in terms of the the two teams I would say that Garvey and JJ benefit Wasps more than Simpson and Mafi benefit Irish that's all.

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 09 Jan 2012, 3:15 pm

Possibly, I think as an Irish fan you probably rate Garvey & JJ higher than others. Garvey could step up soon but JJ looks a fair way of imo so a fair swap for Simpson.

Sorry for jumping in! Lol

by Bathite Mon 09 Jan 2012, 3:22 pm

12m or 5m + Salvi? MAybe?

by **Ozzy3213** Mon 09 Jan 2012, 3:26 pm

Surprised to hear you say JJ looks a fair way off, he was arguably our best play prior to getting injured, we have missed him massively.

For me Simpson is still very up and down and was it not for Care being punted by Lancaster he may not have made the EPS in my opinion.

by stnick88 Mon 09 Jan 2012, 3:29 pm

Garvey is the b ollocks mate.
JJ needs to play more before I make a full judgement on, but looks a good prospect.

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 09 Jan 2012, 3:36 pm

All opinions mate, I meant JJ looks a fair way off Int level. Big prospect tho

by stnick88 Mon 09 Jan 2012, 3:39 pm

I am suprised at how Greenwood wants him involved now and saying how good he is, as playing 13 he only played about games this season when everyone was at WC. he did play very well and score 4 tries though.

by CJB Mon 09 Jan 2012, 5:47 pm

Don't feel I improve anywhere

by Steven_Sharks Tue 10 Jan 2012, 12:27 pm

Myall would probably need Wentzel.

by pullthestrings Wed 11 Jan 2012, 8:56 am

gray - 7 mil
treviranus - 9 mil
thompstone - 8 mil

?

by pullthestrings Wed 11 Jan 2012, 10:26 am

Hape and Gray?
=
Flutey + Salvi?

enq.

by Fluxy Wed 11 Jan 2012, 2:49 pm

What for Waldlouck mate?

by **Ozzy3213** Wed 11 Jan 2012, 3:29 pm

You interested in any of Budgen, Andress, Mitchell or Tui at tighthead mate?

by **Ozzy3213** Wed 11 Jan 2012, 3:33 pm

Is Mas fit at the moment? Can't remember if I saw him in the French 6 Nations squad or not.

by Fluxy Wed 11 Jan 2012, 3:40 pm

Mas was called up

by Fluxy Wed 11 Jan 2012, 9:15 pm

Swinson + Gopperth + Helluer + Cuthbert
=
Birkett + Robinson + Waldlouck + Tuilagi

Enq

by Fluxy Thu 12 Jan 2012, 1:52 pm

Anything in the above mate?

by pullthestrings Thu 12 Jan 2012, 4:14 pm

flutey, varndell, davis
hape, ojo, shingler

---

No thanks mate. Big fan of Hape, and Ojo and Shingler have bags of potential.

by Fluxy Fri 13 Jan 2012, 11:03 am

Swinson + Gopperth + Helluer
=
Birkett + Robinson + Waldlouck

Enq

by Fluxy Fri 13 Jan 2012, 11:12 am

Then who for him buddy?

by Fluxy Sun 15 Jan 2012, 11:57 pm

Mercey
=
Waldlouck

?

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 16 Jan 2012, 10:27 pm

Would need JJ + involved mate

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 22 Jan 2012, 8:48 pm

After a gruelling first AP game your squad has picked up the following injuries:

Week highlighted is the week they become available.

Week 7 - Matt Garvey
Week 8 - Alesana Tuilagi
Week 9 - Nicky Robinson
Week 10 - Ricky Flutey
Week 11 - Tom Lindsay

by pullthestrings Mon 23 Jan 2012, 11:48 am

For Shingler I'd need Robinson (with Cips and Davis not holding much rating, and Bowden injured now)

For Yarde, JJ?

by **Ozzy3213** Mon 23 Jan 2012, 11:50 am

What for Waldouck?

by CJB Mon 23 Jan 2012, 6:39 pm

Prefer Fasa by quite a bit

add Wentzel somehow?

by CJB Mon 23 Jan 2012, 8:20 pm

Need a gain off Poff

by CJB Mon 23 Jan 2012, 9:36 pm

Doesn't neccesarilly need to be huge gain, but need a gain

by CJB Mon 23 Jan 2012, 9:50 pm

Lindsay + Poff 4 Fasa + ?

by Driver Mon 23 Jan 2012, 9:51 pm

What for Cipriani mate?

by pullthestrings Wed 25 Jan 2012, 1:58 pm

hello mate
what for armitage and spratt

Could do a deal for JJ or Waldouck, including Tuilagi?

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 26 Jan 2012, 12:48 pm

Lindsay + Billy for Hawkins?
