they have smith and eastmond in their ranks, i would think one of them would have been earmarked as his replacement. i read an interview with long a while back and he said he was grooming eastmond as his replacement.

Hopefully Stains will use Eastmond as Long's replacement.

Wigan made Long an offer but from what I was told it was always unlikely he would sign for us. Wakefield offered him considerably more as did Hull.

Long is bringing out his autobiography too.
