| Quote carl_spackler="carl_spackler"I'm hopeful that this signing is the first indication of a shift in our approach. I can't see Long wanting to come and play the sort of stuff we do now, so hopefully part of what Agar said to apparently convince him was that we intend to move towards a more expansive game that will suit him.'"
Well that is the hope I agree but we need a few more players in order to be able to play that way IMO. Lets hope some more signings will be announced that will enable us to play a more expansive game. |

| Quote MR BOJANGLES="MR BOJANGLES"The Orford thing may have taken ages to sort out and possibly fallen through and if he did come he would only have been here for two years maximum.
I think the club have just thought if we put all our eggs in the Orford basket and the likes of Long are missed we could miss out all together.
Im sure the club would have loved Orford but decided to strike now and get Long instead of potentially missing out on both of them !'"
And honestly how long (pardon the pun) do you think Longey will be playing for, he'll be 35 by the end of his 2 yr contract. |

| Quote oggy123="oggy123"thats a awesome signing for you men you probably have the best half back pairing in the league next year whit long/horne. Horne will improve even more now that the pressure isnt on him to guide you round he can take them on more now knowing that long will attract all the attention'"

Thats exactly what I meant the length of service we would get out of either player is the same !! |

I see, and has been said earlier, you know he'll be here for the start of pre season. |

The thing is, I think we have quite a few at the club already to help us play that game, we just don't organise them in the right way. If the only other changes we were to make was to sort out our use (or lack of) of dummy runners and increase our support play, I think it would still make a huge difference to our attack. |

I really am not trolling but surely you can see that sean Long is a shadow of the player he was. He will no doubt be an improvement to the current waster who is impersonating a scrum half, but OMG, the money that he will have cost beggars belief. If it was believed by saints that he was worth 2 years they would have gave him it..but they didnt. I think you might get a few decent games out of him but a big big mistake again....

Excellent signing, i would rather have Sean Long at his age and with his experience and skill then some over-rated Aussie.

Great signing, but if he gets injured then we are back in the piggy poo.
I would like us to now sign someone like Finch, who is a SO but can play SH. Horne at full back, and if Motu stays utility.
If Long got injured, then Finch to 7, Horne to 6 and Motu at full back.

I'm not convinced that the arrival of Long alone will bring that but I'd be happy to be proven wrong. |
