Moi.
Long would be great to have for the experience, but will only last another two years. Myler could be the future 7 for a long time to come.

| IF there was no way in hell we could sign
Thurston (never happen)
Lockyer
Orford
Dobson
The only way I would have Long at Wigan is if he wasn't on a fortune and we signed Myler aswell so that way we could have him as a mentor like Dunneman did with McGuire and Burrow at Leeds. Other than that no chance I would rather play Kelvin Skerrett at 7.

Long’s performances are going down hill fast and that won’t change when he comes to Wigan. Add to that he’s not really hit any consistent sort of form this season means we should stay well away imo.
As far as I can see Long will only have two benefits on our team if he came
1-Leadership (which is questionable anyway as it’s well known he’s a to$$ pot and not well liked outside of Saints after betting scandal and walking out on GB.
2-He’ll improve out last play kicking game.
Other than compare him to Leuleui,
1-Short kicking- Long isn’t that much better
2-Defence- Leuleu every time
3-Broken field running-Leuleu every time
4-Age-Leuleu every time
5-Commitment to Wigan-Leuleu wins again.

You forgot to add...
1 Passing-Long
2 Putting players through gaps-Long
3 Reading the oppositions defense-Long
4 Organisation in attack-Long
5 Creativity-Long
6 Experience-Long

So, come on then, who do you want? Give me a realistic name, and someone that is available. When Riddell fires off at the end of the season, Tommy will be 9. We need a 7, Long is ideal for us, im not saying he's the same as he was 2 years ago, but he's still the best half back in SL IMO. And how can you comment on commitment to Wigan? Long is a Wigan lad, he didn't choose to leave when he did, we got rid of him. And as for "his performances are going down hill every week" get your facts right, he got man of the match against Harlequins last week.

| Quote ="Mark1987"Long - 140k - 1 year deal with extra 1year extension
Myler - £££k + Goulding - 4 year deal
Myler back to Salford for 2 years on loan, so he's off our SC, Long to tutor Tomkins.
He'll be booed for the first 2/3 games, once he starts winning us games, watch his name appear on Wigan shirts
Plus I'd rather take the risk on having an aged GB player at the club on a high-ish wage, then an aged Aussie on top dollar.
That's the reason behind me wanting Long.
How many tries as there been scored this year, were our wingers have out jumped someone? Prefect guy to score plenty of tries each season from it is Pat, but he's got no-one ot supply that kick this year. If Long couldn't run I wouldn't be bothered, he's kicking game is next to fantastic. If he gives himself plenty of room, even now he could kick a team to death. '"
Enough said, for Long's kicking game and his experience in controlling a pack, he as to be signed.
New Prop
Long
Myler
Make way for them with Coley, Carmont, T. Smith, Bailey

Possibly. But if Phelps making way at the end of this season allows us to bring in
Long
Myler
A New quality prop
Then I'm all for letting him go.
We have Pat, Roberts who can play FB, My choice of putting Sam there for a season, Ainscough, Pryce, Roberts, Richards who can play on the wings, so I don't think he'll be a big lose in comparison to what we could gain.

Long as got what 1 mabye 2 years left so what would be good from signing him?
So YOU should stop the dribble talk

Do you watch the guy play?? very talented if you ask me.
Yes! he lacks enthusiasm but get a decent moral boosting coach in who knows how to fill players with euthusiasm, he become a far better player!

Pryce has the same build and stlye as Jamal Idris who plays for Canterbury Bulldogs, Idris is quality and knocks them out of the way for fun and is a pleasure to watch (Take note IL and get him signed up) and is fast as ken! But Pryce hasn't done much, he has the potential he needs to pull his finger out.
