I'm surprised no one hasn't commented on this already but did anyone see in the league weekly about Sean Long asking to come play for us if he comes out of retirement?

What do you think? Still good enough for our league at 37 or past it?

Wasn't he injury prone towards the end of his career?
If this is the case then I would only have him on a pay as you play contract.

We need to be giving young lads a chance! Long was no doubt class in his day. His day has gone.

Nooooooooooooo. Will unsettle the squad.

So why would he ask to play for us?
What's his affiliation with Fax?
Haven't read the article,
So for now, I would say "don't believe all you read in the press"

Wouldn't mind him tho'

thought he was the one that put spanner in works for fax signing finn.

I have been told that he has signed a friend of mine was talking to someone who works at fax in the pure gym who has said signed already

better than what we have i would have him in a heartbeat

Really?

+1

The Finn thing was higher up than Long.

Me too, that would be the "bums on seats" signing

I would be happy with Him as well, Maybe thats why he put the spanner in the works for Finn, so he could come himself.

He may be 37 years old but i remember only a few seasons ago what a massive difference it made bringing Graham Holroyd out of retirement. If this gets confirmed then my cash will be parted with for the season ticket. Currently I'm hanging on to find out whats going on with the structure.

So long as it's a "pay per play" deal I'd certainly give him a go. He seems the type of guy who would keep himself fit and could go ok for a season at Championship level and the experience he would pass on could be immeasurable. Add to that the spark he may add in attack and the crowd-pulling element and what do we have to lose?

He needs to grow his dreadlocks back though so we can market Longy Wigs. (We missed that opportunity with Freddie Tuilangi).

Also how good would it be for any young half backs at fax to have a few tips off Sean long

I guess you never read his book?
