Quote FearTheVee="FearTheVee"His contract is soon to be up, as is KC's.
If it were up to me I'd keep KC and let Long go - he's starting to pick up knocks and we now have kids capable of stepping up.
Sure, we might not be as slick for half a season or so, but we need to phase him and KC out rather than lose both at once later down the line.
For years people have been saying we'll be stuffed when x, y and z retire. We've done a good job replacing the irreplacable over recent years (Sullivan, Newlove, Iro, Gibbs, Albert, Martyn, Sculthorpe, Joynt, Perelini, Lyon, Anderson etc etc) and with the young lads knocking around KR these days, we'll be fine without Longy.
Unless he'll take a reduced contract a la KC/Scully last time, he'll be off IMO.'"
The money Long would free up could be invested in a utility player that could cover the halfs aswell as upgrading a few of the young players deals.
A sensible way to go in all honesty.
