Get Tommy Taylor and Ross Harrison in your academy mate. Hooker and prop respectively.

Really good prospects

What for Bekker?

I'd be interested in Bekker mate

What for knight ?

Close game mate....what you looking for Salvi/Lipman?

Don't put Salvi in that league mate, no probs. Future SA engine room in Flip/Bekker would be quite tasty

Yea possibly, Elstadt looks a prospect. Flips in prime position and still young, one of the few to come out with any credit on Sat with Roussow.

No interest in that deal mate, not looking to lose either unless I had serious quality coming back.

Yea possibly, all opinions I guess. Depends if Elstadt can kick on next season, he petered out towards the end of the season, was poor against Crusaders. Big season for Flip being first choice too, be a great battle between the two.

Think I'll keep hold of those for now mate, see they'll be Int regulars in the coming years so not really worth cashing in now.

Not sure mate, would leave me short on full backs as I have just sold Olly Morgan to Worcester.

What for Ouedraogo mate?

Not really looking to lose Clegg matey.

No mate, don't need Salvi anymore, now that I've found out there aren't any injuries during the WC haha!

Hey up Johnny....interested in these:

Jerome Schuster [LH]
Guilleme Guirado [HK]
David Paice [HK]
Brett Sharman [HK]
Luc Ducalcon [LH/TH]
Romain Millo Chluski [LK]
Steven Sykes [LK]
Andries Bekker [LK]
Adam Thomson [BS/OS]
Louis Picamoles [BS/NO 8]
Danny Care [SH]

I was just bored....I see where you're coming from. Mildly interested in Salvi, but nothing major. Give me some names....

Need world cup lock in return?

He wouldn't start for me even in the WC sorry.

Interested in Day/Sykes and a gain elsewhere


Vito/Freaun/Bendy really interest me

Won't be around next week mate, here's my team for game 10:

Newcastle Falcons
Manager – Sgt Pooly

01. Fabien Barcella	09. Sarel Pretorious
02. William Servat	10. Nick Evans
03. Paul Doran-Jones
04. Flip van der Merwe	11. Topsy Ojo
05. Juandre Kruger	12. Brad Barritt
06. Juan Smith	13. Jared Payne
07. Chris Robshaw	14. Sean Maitland
08. Duane Vermeulen	15. Ben Smith

16. Andrew Hore 17. Owen Franks 18. Boris Stankovich 19. Pascal Pape 20. Heinrich Brussow 21. Chris Cusiter 22. Jonny Wilkinson 23. Miles Benjamin


Tactics
Normal Falcons high intensity tactics......compete in pack and target lineout with numerous jumpers. Control breakdown and look to attack with turnover ball. Attack with pace and get wings and fb’s into line. Evans to control game and keep the board ticking over, Pretorious to attack the fringes.

what would it take to get james hook?

Dude, did you see Waikato vs. Manawatu in the ITM last week? I have just seen Manawatu's second try, some unbelievable skills from Cruden. The boy has been sensational the past few weeks in the ITM.

What for Paice Johnny?

What for Salvi in a 1 for 1 deal? Not including Fearns lol

How about

Salvi + Pickles

for

Holah and Delve? - both available all year and Holah will be playing S15 rugby this year

It's a double edged sword which means Carl Fearns will be playing 7 for me during the RWC unless i bring Holah home which at the moment is looking more likely.

Some tough selections to be made for this weeks game! But after the win vs Gloucester i'm in it to win it!

johnny i can loan you andy hazell for Yann David. Also i will sort you out a loan post WC for someone. as you know i have no problems loaning out decent players.

Would really appreciate it

Sorry mate can't do had a rejig with tactics and i'll be springing a surprise this week.

Not overly flush - Waldrom, Lund and Joubert - and then Crane is injured IRL and Poff is a nobody until he geats some gametime for Wasps, so can't really lose much there bud.

Done his knee, out for the season they reckon.

Crane for David loan for WC?

Crane will still keep some ratings for a while.

What for Horstman?

Ok bud....especially if he hits the ground running!!

Link due on Euro League

What for Kruger?

What for Strettle, Lipman and Salvi mate?

Rautenbach + £5m?

What about...

Harris + Crane
for
Kruger + David + £10m?

Harris top young prop,already on Leicester's bench.

Not to worry

Who's available in that kinda deal

Everyone's had a bit of a rant about Kruger this weekend

How about
Imolek/Knight + Vito 4 Zira

Dang, any of your locks available

Need a bit more than that for Zira mate.

Zira + Ansboro
4
Knight/Imolek + Freaun

Willing to wait until after the WC to do this

Any chance of Shaun Perry or Nicolas Bezy on loan until the end of the World Cup mate?

Diamond, cheers buddy.

Fair enough, left you a bid on WC game
