I'm surprised you're letting Long go as I would have thought that he'd have been a Saints player until he retires.

Can't just keep giving out contracts until someone retires - they'd never retire!

It's going to be intresting who saints play scrum half next year. IMO wheeler has proved he can hold his own but eastmond has not had the game time to prove it.

Not sure if wheeler and eastmond would make good halfback partner for pryce.

We need a ball playing 7 who can move us round the pitch and control the game.

It's shame long didn't do 1 more year.

Sorry pal but his kicking is crap and so is his organising.

Hull have signed 2 OAPs for next year.

It's big risk but IMO saints did rite in letting long go.

A change of club may do him some good. He still better than what you got at moment though.

And....... What's the point??

He is old, his kicking is crap and we doing the rite thing letting him go.

With nobody at the level needed to step up it would have been ok if he did another year in which we could bed eastmond in.

Is that not common sense?
