I take it you haven't got any of those nifty connectors from a tortec rack knocking about? I've used them and p clips to make my own version. LBS has a box of old rack hardware so you might have luck with yours.
nejib-
I can bodge something together with my rack hardware like this, but it's a bit silly and my p clips are too big.
Main concern is the bag bouncing around levering on the saddle rails causing saddle/seatpost to slip or I guess eventually break. So I think if I can bodge it so the struts to take most of that force then I'll be happy.
I like the rod solution - looks sturdy - but not sure the cable ties would withstand a good whack from the bag

Bodge suggestions for these struts/Bagman? Need to stop it bouncing around. Can't order parts online or the official struts as they won't get here in time (unless I get something off Amazon which I'd rather avoid). There are Wickeses etc. within riding distance though.
(the little silver ones probably won't work, there's no way to tighten them down onto the struts)
I have bolts, nuts, zip ties, duct tape, hose clamps, etc.
