Take all the hatred of the guy away and ask the question would he be an improvment on what we have and to me the answear is yes but it's a risk pairing him up with Gleeson again at a club where he's detested by the fans.
He'd have to be about 4/5th choice at best at the moment.

| Quote: Last Son of Wigan "I'm bold to suggest this, and I know there is another thread about Mr L, but I wanted IL (If he reads the threads on this site) to hear from someone who sees the benefits of Long coming to Wigan.
As always I will explain my comment.
We have often spoke about lacking experience in the halves, often looking over to Aus for a half to add experience (Orford Lockyer) When perhaps the experienced half we need is actually a Wiganer.
Lets look at Long.
Still in my opinion the best 7 in SL.
Has the experience and knows how to win a game.
Can control the team great organisation skills.
Great kicking game.
Still had a quick step
Great passer of the ball.
.'"
Stopped reading at that point, it would be clear to me the rest would be a waste of my time. |

It does not matter if he is an improvement on what we currently have, wht does matter is, is he the best half available at the moment, the answer is categorically NO. |

Who do we know for sure is available though?
To my knowledge it's only confirmed as Fien and Long.
Who's better out of that pair?
Close call imo. |

Don't you be trying to palm your cast offs on us 
Agree though.
Going away from Long though i've said my order of priority would be-
1-Myler
2-Dobson
3Long/Fien
The first 2 would be looking long term to form a hlafback partnership with Tomkins whereas Fien/Long would be a stop gap signing but both are classy players. |

We maybe do not but i sure would hope that IL does. What we do know is Orford and Fein appear to be availble both of who i would have ahead of Long.
I guess time will tell, if/when a new half is announced but if we do not have a 6 or 7 to partner Tomkins who is superior to Long i would be very disspointed. |

Ok, but picture the scene
It's a bright sunny day at wembley and there are 80000 saints and wigan fans there.
The scores are tied with 2 mins left
Long in his bright cherry and white hoops drops back out of the attacking line and ball comes to him ........

and the cack handed frigger drops it allowing Leon Pryce a romp away score to win the game for Saints as Long runs around the pitch in St Bernards head, forgetting that he now plays for Wigan! |
