It is an end of an era.

Been superb for the club.

But it is time for him to go and let the youngsters establish themselves in the team, to help bring the age of the squad down.

All the best to longy for the future.

Thanks for the memories.

I didn't count Long as he's out of here next year.

Really shocked by this announcement. It won't look right with Longy not in a Saints shirt, gutted by his departure.

But, on the bright side, next year it gives Wheeler/Eastmond/Smith the chance to develop and make the no. 7 jersey their own.

I agree this seems a good move by all. I am especially pleased for Long who obviously feels he has got longer to offer at the top level. As an earlier poster said, he owes Saints nothing and we can never pay him back for all he had given us.

How utterly original. Has it taken you 3 years to think of it?

Good move for Saints, good move for Sean, good move for Hull.

Sad day, but I can't complain - it's the right time for it.

What a legend the guy has been though. His last game will be an emotional affair ... hopefully it will finish with him lifting the SL trophy.
