When Pryce was on form he could rip teams to pieces. And deacon was more of a distributor whereas Long was a mixture. When we beat the Aussies 23-12 was it? Long ran at the Aussies as well as just take them on then pass.

That was the game when we beat them in Sydney and the Long fell out with Noble and retired from internationals? That game and his line break in the "Wide to West" try, in my opinion the greatest Rugby League try ever, are my abiding memories of Long.

If you had a player with Pryce's size and speed with Deacon's distribution and kicking and Long's off the cuff play and you'd pretty much have the perfect half back.

Aye Long's contribution for Raynor's try was one of my favourite moments in an international.

Long's part in the Wide to West IS the best SL try no two ways about it. Shame it was against us.

And yes although Pryce and Deacon in the halves (in their prime) tore teams apart left right and centre. No one good enough to do it now except Widdop. But I do agree, mix all them together and you get Lockyer
