Come on, Longy can be accused of having been a silly immature pratt, but he's never done any harm to anyone.

Well I read it in the "Post" and on Twitter that there would be a meeting with the press at 11am Tuesday 23rd April but I think we all knew what was happening before the announcement,

| I thought Hock was OOC at the end of this year? How can you command a transfer fee if this is the case?

Signed a 5 year deal when he came back from his ban.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| Very happy with all of that.
Great to see Faz rewarded with a new contract.
Glad we've got a six figure sum for Hock.
Shame to see Mossop go in a sense, however the fact we've got another six figure sum and Mossop has stated that the contractual option to return to Wigan was the deal closer. I think we'll see him back in a couple of years time - I can live with that.
Interesting to see how Andy Powell goes. Read good reports on him and I'm encouraged.
Sean Long joins what is now the best backroom coaching staff in RL. Shaun Wane, Iestyn Harris, Paul Deacon, John Winder, Matty Peet, Sean Long and Dave Clark. Outstanding.
Ian Lenagan confirmed Sam will leave for the NRL and NOT Rugby Union either next year of the year after. Horrible to hear he'll leave the club, pleased that he hasn't left the game altogether.
Right there's my positive spin on things, what do others think?

your deluded mate.
Have you read his book?
He openly admits to assaulting females, trespass, theft, poaching,egal betting... need i go on?
Add a few other "incidents" that are common knowlegde, but possibly libelous if posted on here, and he comes across as an obnoxious individual.
Great rugby player, but not a great person

It'll be great to finally have a man on the inside rather than all this 'throwing packages over the fence' palaver.

Does he need to be a 'great person' to be a great coach?
