Foreign Transfer Page

First topic message reminder :

As a general rule, if you want a world class player (and by world class I mean a player that I consider to be one of the 3 best in the world in his position at the moment), you will be looking at between £20-25 million.

For a top international with over 30 caps, £17-22 million, and an international with less than 30 caps £15-20 million. There may be some exceptions to this in the case of certain players, but this will be the general rule.

There will be an upper limit of £10 million for uncapped academy aged players unless two or more managers want the player and enter into a bidding war in which case there is no upper limit.

Bids for uncapped players who are over academy age limits will be judged on their own individual merits.

he is a beast of a carrier.

Suta not a bad lock if anyone is after a powerful 2nd row.

I am considering Suta.

I am too but know I need a 10!

I was considering Tusi Pisi as a 10. Always decent for Samoa.

He is good but his kicking can be dodgy

Sorry lads did not realise I was next. Limited connection here. Will think on It and select by tomorrow am your time

No worries Mat, we've rattled through so far.

Ebersohn

DANE COLES

Steve has PM'd me his choice which is...

Stuart Olding.


Over to you luke.

Interesting, I was going to bid for him later on.

Ian Evans

round 2!!!!

Lets go again then...

Ben Afeaki

I was really tempted by Afeaki, but I have enough tightheads already.

I looked at him but i thought with Cole and Wilson in the EQ set up the chances i'd lose PDJ where slim.

worcester go Halani Aulika

Tiaan Liebenberg

You and your Saffers DHL lol

It's what comes from having grandparents from Cape Town.  Love South African rugby.

It's a wonderful blend f brutal force and soft touchs

Damn you Steve!!

My suspicion he wouldn't last another round was correct. Some competition in front of him with at both Ireland and Ulster but the boy can play

Olding is going to be a very good player.

Come on CJB, I want my next pick!!!

Rhys Patchell

think we'll do this by tonight

Sorry I'm taking a while with my pick.  I have a list of 26 players and can't make my mind up!

26?! I only have 2!

And that doesn't include any academy targets!

I'm going to go for an academy aged player actually...

Sebastien Vahaamahina

haven't heard of half of these!

Vahammahina is a beast of a young lad at Perpignan. Played v All Blacks last week. I was considering picking him up next as thought he would be pricey when foreigns open!

Wasn't he in the French AIs squad?

I thought he might go if I didn't take him now SJE.  Was weighing up between him, a number 8 and an outside centre as they are the spots I need to fill.

Yeah think so. Played during the 6 nations as well

Not a bad shout with Vahaamahina, I honestly thought he already in the game!

So did I.  Ithought Luke had him, but when I checked he had Romain Taofifenua the other young Perpignan lock.

The exact same mistake I made lol

Don't think anyone has him, but havent checked the academies!

Jacques Du Plessis

Rory kockott

2nd top scorer in top 14 this year , good bid prop.

yeh been excellent for Castres. i thought he was old but he is only 26.

Kieran Marmion

Damn you SJE!!!!

Had to act Pete! My top two academy targets already gone 

who is he?

Connachts young scrummie highly rated over here. Likely to be involved come the AIs with Scmidt in charge.

Nice call SirJ.....one of my list gone! I though Kockott was alot older than he is! Hence why I went for him in the end.

struggling with who to go for!

Sorry luke. Can I select a player who is being bidded on in the releases sections ?

I would like to get masi but don't know if this is allowed ?
