Right now, I would accept a season long second coming. But no more.

No way would Hull release Long from a big contract to go back to Saints, and no way would we pay a fee for less than a season out of a player who has been struggling with injuries.

Non-starter I reckon.

That depends if he wants to come back or not. If the reported personal problems are true, he may want to be closer to home. Nothing surprises me in this game.

They've just signed Sam Obst.

No thanks. Leon plus one of Lomax/Wheeler for me. Give them a chance to see if they can make it. If we need to, we can buy someone in for next season.

Hull needed someone to replace a halfback who left at the end of last season, to partner Longy. That's why they jumped for Obst.

They've already got Richard Horne though.

I'm not saying it'll happen, but I've seen stranger things occur. Long played well for Hull on Saturday, possibly their best player.

I know. Hudds have just signed Dale Ferguson, but I doubt it means they'll be releasing Luke O'Donnell.

It's all silly rumour at the moment, but having Long and Pryce would be a godsend for me. There is no way that they will both be fit all season, letting Lomax cover and Wheeler to play at centre.

Oh yes. I forgot about him. Won't they need someone to cover fullback though until thingy comes up from down under, visa permitting?

Do you think he was trying to impress?
