I would consider Murphy to be the better of the two but Sean is certainly the second best srum half to play for Saints.

Many people now following the game have never seen Murphy play and so comparrisons are more difficult.

Murphy was not perfect by any means and in many repects Long has had a far better temprament to play the game. look at how many times Murphy got the red card for foul play or abusing the ref. I don't ever recall Long getting a red card in his entire career and certainly Long has kicked far more goals than Murphy ever did.

I was far to young to see murphy play and only seen him on odd videos and what my dad told me about him.

If he was better than longy then he was a hell of a player.

One thing for sure longy is the best 7 I've seen play in this country in super league by a mile.

Also longy has got to be the greatest match winner this clubs ever had.
