Correct give the man a bannana Gleeson to be his bookies runner.

Good luck to him. Yes he's a bit of a berk, but a very good player.

Hopefully can make Salford a bit more consitant - if it is Salford.

Tremendous player but a bit of a tool.

Ripped the Aussies a new one in Sydney 2006 which is good enough for me.

Confirmed in this mornings Daily Express,Long is to be an assistant to Matt Parrish at Salford.

God help them, that's all I can say.

And when everything else looked to be going so well for them.

christ, they going to be in a bad way,
wouldnt have him newhere near the game again, what a tool,

Has Vievers left then?

its some special post isnt it? seems to have been created by this parish lad, not sure its just an assistant coach

Shane who???


Terrific player that will be remembered for off the field stuff, just as much as his considerable on field achievements. Could have been remembered by[size all [/sizefans as one of the best of his generation, but will only be regarded as such by saints fans.... Sad really.

Remember this guy may be a bad influence but if hes matured then the excellent rugby brain (that noone can deny he has) will make him one hell of a coach. I already believe he had things to do with, or attended, Edge Hill University while he was a Saints player so you never know if hes matured he will prove you all wrong I reckon. Still wouldnt want him anywhere near Wigan right now until he proves he has but I suppose he has to be given the chance to prove it. I know the frustration there of wanting a better job but being told you need experience. Where the hell are you going to get experience if noone will take the chance? Could be a shrewd move by Salford.

Excellent idea. So long as this experiment doesn't involve any Wigan youngsters.

Great player.

Not convinced I would have him as a coach, but you never know, he may have grown up.

Remember him being the future of Wigan when he was younger, had all the talent, but ended up being swapped for a prop.
Certainly put egg on our faces for many a year afterwards. Still have happy memories of him playing for Wigan, but not so happy ones when he was at Stains.
Good luck for his retirement, still haven't finished colouring in the pages of his autobiography.
He may well be a role model for Salford, especially with those involved in rioting and Gypos.
