Hello guys, what is going on with mine and rowleyfox's deal?

I take it he has left now, but has still forwarded another deal, but the Albacete part of the deal is now cancelled? Im I right or im I wrong?

Can I join in these discussions if possible, they look interesting and could be useful in the task I have set myself.

Thank you

Mumm can't travel to the uk - we don't let ugly people in . .. . . in that case add beale as well

Globear check with pull about whom you do have cant see why blogs can suddenly change part of the deal you guys did the next day - ok

I see it as cancelled, but have seen the rules which states that if a deal is confirmed it must go through. Yes I clearly took him to the cleaners, but I only proposed it as part of my task and I would love it if I kept those players, but I accept that it's pullthestrings decision to decide upon what action to take.

But if Rowleyfox is happy with it, then I think the deal should stand.

Also it seems like it's only me and you banafan-aka-hon tonight, shame I couldn't get on sooner it has been very active today by the looks of it.

How was your night out

yeah mate check with pull bud - those deals had gone through, can't see why he should change just one part of it back, if anything the whole deal should be changed not just one part . . .if at all

Pullthestrings was on last night so he could well appear in a couple of minutes. Fingers crossed.

How was my night out, that directed at me I guess.

I have been busy all day or I would of come on sooner, a lot of work needs doing college wise but I will get on 606v2 because I did say I am commited.

Just have to be patient with me.

On the portal it says pullthestrings is on

Clear this up for me please.

Evening. Updating everything now as I'm busy at work tomorrow and then straight out after.

I'm tempted to cancel it Gloucester.. it was quite unfair.

From what rowleyfox said it seems he was after a 10, and Poitrenaud and Kearney I agree with him I would have about level on par, Albacete 4 Jack is the part of the deal that is making you decide to cancel, I understand that and I can clearly see why.

But I need a New Zealand starting 15 SOMEHOW!

Good luck with that Gloucester, Bathite has half of the backs in his side!

Anyway, can you change it back to what it was please. I'll ask Rowley to do the same lol.

So you want me to put Jack, Poitrenaud, Tuilagi and Lambie back in my side, or can I keep Albacete, McAlister and Kearney, nobody likes Rowleyfox so let him suffer lol.

But if you want me to put the likes of Jack and Lambie back in, I have already done that.

Bathite has done very well but I have Kelleher, Donald and Guildford that's a step forward, McAlister would have helped aswell.

Anyway im not giving up even though it may be 99% impossible.

Nice one. I'm about for a deal and have a few all blacks - put forward a deal

will do indeed.

Will concentrate on Israel.

A 10 point loss I was hoping for a bit better than that, still shows improvements are needed then no problem in that.

Also well done Bathite, of the little time I have been here, you fully deserve manager of the month

To be fair the actual predictions were pretty close, it's just Stade kept getting the wins by small margins meaning they got an extra point each time. That's what made the difference.

I'm genuinely worried about Saracens - a strong a squad as anyone and with their position in the league their due more and more cash

Surely it's good having competitive teams at the bottom! Would be very boring j the top 4 stayed the same. Think the league has levelled up a bit and that's down to the work of driver glosbear and hon. You are all my front runners for MOTM next month.

Pull-thanks, still got a very long way to go though, still big gap to 4th! When is the next round of Europe?

Wekk 11 will be the Challenge Cup semi's

I have always looked back at people's deals just to get an insight of what to do and how to work this game.

Bathite I have to say going by comments and looking at your deals you have been incredible to get such a good side; however even though you have a good set up some of us especially the teams placed in 1st to 5th position have some very strong and world class players. Toulouse, Leicester and Scottish Highlanders look very good, and have better players than you do at Saracens.

If you could have fresher thoughts and try and get a few bigger named players, maybe four to five I would put you in the top two at the end of the season. Looking back you have the knowledge to pull that off, and the deals you make are very good one's.

Going through your side, I haven't let off any views yet I just like to get my head down and play but to compete with the top four to five, a better tighthead prop, a revamp at lock, someone with a swagger about them at 8 and maybe someone to replace Maitland and Halfpenny on the wing which ever one of them you prefer, then I do believe you will finish top two.

If you could buy a Tighthead Prop, lock, number eight and another winger in the foreigns or either domestically then you will shoot up the league into the top two. Reason im saying this, looking at Toulouse, Leicester and Scottish Highlanders they have the following players in the four positions I think you lack the real world class talent in.

Mas, Botha, Donnolly, Read, Ranger and Medard
Castro, Thorn, Rossouw, Spies, Rokocoko and Sivivatu
Hayman, Whitelock, Davies, Beattie, Jane and Ashton

Looking at those following players pooly, pullthestrings and inthefastlane have, you Bathite have a bit of work to do, not much but a bit.

This may pay off for your own good, or you may think im talking utter drivel but I haven't voiced any opinions yet and this is my first one, hope it helps Bathite

Also Bathite looking on 606 you seem to like doing top 10 players in every position, you may find it boring or repetitive but it would do me the world of good to improve my side if I could get some top 20's or 25's in the following positions.

Lock, blindside and openside flanker, fly-half, centre and wing. Could frankly take the mick doing all of them, but for my benefit it would help.

You don't have to do all of those positions if you don't want to, you could look at my side look where I need to improve out of those six positions pick the main one's and tell me your top 20 or 25 players.

It would be a massive help, you don't have to do it but it will get you all active and talking about a thing you love most which is RUGBY.

Thank you

Will do them tommorow at some point (y)

Cool inthefastlane thank you.

Would like to get as many as possible of course, but if you have all done them before and can't be bothered to do them again that's fine. I will just have to think harder, and maybe put in some woeful comments while doing so.

Much appreciated if you do decide on it though, like I said it get's us all active.
As it is quiet now I will be departing offline.

I should be around in the late afternoon like I was yesterday, if you could get these top 20-25's in the following positions in the morning or early afternoon.

Lock, blindside and openside flanker, fly-half, centre and wing that would be smashing.

Only one person to say goodnight to and that is inthefastlane.

Thanks for all the help tonight it has been grand

Thanks bear! I'll try and help out with the top tens today, see how it goes.

League table:

Has anyone noticed that Tom Donnelly hasn't been starting for the highlanders? Benched again today

So lets do top 25 locks then and hopefully we can blitz through all the top ranking lists!

Its difficult, as some are bruisers, some are more athletic, but something like:

These 8 are just a little bit more special than everyone else I think
Matfield
Sharpe
Thorn
Botha
Nallet
Albacete
POC
Whitelock
--
Lawes
Davies
Bekker
DOC
Donnelly
Boric
Palmer
Roussow
AWJ
Gray
Jack

And in no order, hard to seperate, I would include:
Kellock, Pape, Thion, Deacon, Horwill

Have probably left loads out and order will be debatable, but I would rate anyone in the top 8 v highly and the others as good players. Anyone not in the list I see as a potential weakness (unless i have left them out accidently!)

Matfield
Thorn
Botha
Sharpe
Albacete
POC
Nallet
Whitelock
Horwill
Hines
Lawes
Davies
Bekker
Gray
Donnelly
Pierre
Boric
Palmer
Pape
Chisholm
Jack
Kruger
Williams
AWJ
Roussow

1 Victor Matfield
2 Brad Thorn
3 Bakkies Botha
4 Nathan Sharpe
5 Patricio Albacete
6 Paul O'Connell
7 Sam Whitelock
8 Lionel Nallet
9 Tom Palmer
10 Richie Gray
11 Mark Chisholm
12 Andreis Bekker
13 Bradley Davies
14 Courtney Lawes
15 James Horwill
16 Tom Donnelly
17 Juandre Kruger
18 Anthony Boric
19 Danie Roussow
20 Chris Jack
21 Al Kellock
22 Donnagha O’Callaghan
23 Julien Pierre
24 Alun Wyn Jones
25 Nathan Hines

Sorry mate, can't be bothered to do all of those, but here is the link to the 606 discussions. Doubt that many people will have the time to do it all over again for each positions you suggested! I have even done a little key for you, to direct you to the right page for each position!

Looking through those pages, funny how many times i noticed Rowley quit!

I think Erik Lund is worth a mention as well, always performs well which ever side he's in, he gets overlooked a lot seeing as he plays for a weak national side.

Top work Bathite!

Thinking about it, that might be useful to everyone, might formalise that as a proper page/link

QUE?

How many times I have quit

I looked through the pages on 606 earlier last week and I have to say I was very amused but disgusted by some of my comments.

Amount of times I left, or complained but then again I did laugh at my arguments with 207.

Quality, I will do my top 20's or 25's in a minute, I will just go back and try and find my last list on 606 on locks and just copy and paste

QUE????

There we go just added Jack going by form, put Sharpe to 2nd and moved O'Connell and Whitelock up and Donnolly down.

I enjoy doing them :L

and yer I doish. Just took my GCSE in it, hoping to forget it forever. Somehow fluking a b :L

Im just going out will be back soon, will get back to your other comment Bathite and well done to you for making that top 10 page, even though we are doing 20's or 25's top work though will help every single one of you with comparisons.

Will do my next position when I get back which is blindside flanker I believe.

Also they don't have to be done all today I guess we have the weekend and early next week to complete them, I will offer my top 25's as I have a lot of time on my hands this week.

inthefastlane - oh, no i understand, must be friday!

Fluked a b, muy bien!

rowley - not to worry mate, got it all sorted in my head now, thanks. these 25s confirmed my thoughts

Please take AWJ off any lock rating...he is absolutely garbage.

So is Donnelly!
