I would rather we play the team that performs the best regardless of what they are paid, but hey thats just me.

It's already been established that you're not a true fan as you don't use your season pass

Seems a fair punishment given his previous good disciplinary record.

His crocodile tears obviously worked

Would still leave us a body short and with no half cover for injuries. Just doesn't seem logical to me.

I thought our best attacking performance so far has been with Long, Horne, and Obst all on the field anyway?

Which performance are you relating to Kosh? I presume you mean the Quins game where long was anonymous for the majority of the game as usual.

The charge was downgraded.

That was the game I had in mind, yes. Only going off reports on here and the press mind.

I'm not suggesting that he's set the league alight but he does seem to be doing some good stuff. And as far as I'm concerned the more creative players we have in the side the better. Long at SH and Obst rotating with Houghton is better than our alternatives with Obst in the halves IMO.

Be interesting to see how we perform in the next couple of games without Long and if performances change when he returns. I agree the more creative players the better, but I just get the impression that Long is pretty much disinterested the majority of the time.

I doubt we will miss him for 2 games, I was excited when we signed him but barring a couple of games he has been a poor signing and probably cost us a fortune!

Long hasn't been poor but he just hasn't been that good either but that doesn't warrant throwing him on the scrap heap does it? I'm sure the team will benefit from having him in it in the long run and it's not like Obst won't get a game because of him either.

So your saying he has been average ....He will be one of the highest paid players in our squad, a wage which is way above average and his performance should reflect that!! Take Fitz & Orgre now they earn their high wage, Longy does/has not!
