Deacon I need really as he can call the lineout and also provides grunt and is English, so I'm not really seeing anything for him.

Mullan I would need a loosehead back, but don't want Waller, so would need to be part of a bigger deal where I get a loosehead and and English player in another position.

Maybe something like Mullan and Rennie for Tonga'uiha and Goode?

I think we're struggling again then as trying to find a comparable level Englishman in your squad is looking difficult. Benjamin maybe, but I have no need for another English winger, Doran-Jones would be one, but I have a big stock of tightheads as it is.

Yeah, just trying to balance the squad up as it's a bit lobsided in some positions at the moment. I'm sure we'll get there on a deal at some point.
