Salford-Myler > Long
Wigan-Leuluai > Long
Warrington- Monaghan vs Long debatable
Cas-Sherwin vs Long debatable
Wakey- Brough > Long
Huddersfield-Robinson vs Long debatable'"
Myler is not as good as Long (yet) infact if you watch him play he plays more like a stand off, running game and good support play.
Leuluai is no where near as good as long and looks best playing at hooker like he did in the world cup.
Monaghan has been average while at Warrington, Brough is avearge with a good kicking game.
Robinson has to be joke, why so you think Huddersfiled are trying to replace him for next season, he has a good running game and thats about it.
Sherwin is the only person close I would say they are about on par.
A good short term signing, and hopfully him trying with our young halfbacks will improve them and one will be ready in 2 years time. |

Always get a bite in the right plaice.
Never complain about another guests attitude at a mutual friends BBQ the day after the event and then be told by that host that its your own attitude that stinks.
Be man enough to complain on the day !!!!: |

| Quote: HullRedRobin "What I would say about Saints still wanting Long for another year is this;
If Saints really wanted to keep him then he would still be there next year. The reason they offered a one year deal, is that they knew he wouldn't accept it unless forced.
This was the best way for both the club and Long to save face. The club didn't seem to be throwing a legend on the scrap heap, and Long had a fall back offer if non suitable came along.
That said, I think this could be a very good signing for the darkside, but not in the way most of their supporters think.
He will be a massive improvment on what they currently have.
Yes, he IS a proven commodity and a game winner at the highest level in SL.
On the other side of the fence, FC do not have the players that could support Long and his style of play. Playing behind the saints pack is a totally different prospect to playing behind the current crap (opps crop) at FC.
When players get old the tend to have a slower recovery rate, and lets face it FC don't have the best record with injuries.
Worth a gamble though if you ask me, (I know you didn't) as they are very unlikely to sign anyone better in the forceable future.'" Who said we will have the same pack next season?. |

I agree, Long is light years ahead of Robinson, even at 32. |

With typical under-statement, Saints coach Mick Potter said: "Sean Long didn't surprise me. We all know how good he is and he should be happy with the way he went." That could be translated as, "damn him, damn, damn him, the little ...":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44592.jpg |

I think he has a point. If he did not sign there would be a big problem due to lack of replacements.
Not that I know Dobsons personal circumstances and if he is in a rush to return to Oz but I think it looks quite promising for you that he will extend his stay !
IMO Great signing and one that FC definately regret not grabbing !!

Dont forget though, Willowred and Philb have already bee told by god himself that Dobson has signed so this thread is pointless. There is no way he could change his mind now, he signed ages ago and it will be in the media this week. |

HOW on earth do you get NILLED at Wembley ?
When your coach isn't a winner at heart and Gentle is not a winner at heart .
We were a pub team
I coached for a long time and we won 95% of games because winning is a mental state driven by a desire to CRUSH an opposition. Did FC look as though they wanted to Crush Wigan and strangle them until they screamed ? NO
RL is a tough tough game and Maylord She-dong you have no clue
In fact don't ever ever reply to any of my posts again:37721.jpg |

i for one hope he signs, but with no announcement as of yet, i would think his agent is trying to do what he is paid for and get him the best deal.
