Re: Ben Long?
What's the difference between winning a jackpot on the pokies and B. Long winning a match for us. Well both are theoretically possible. But the pokie odds demand you will go broke well before you jackpot - if you live that long. But people still play the pokies...I wonder if we will keep picking Ben just because of the flashing lights and noise he brings rather than objectively assess his odds of, say, just breaking even; which are pretty unconvincing on disclosed form. Newnes of course doesn't come close to providing the minimum statutory return. Richo, select responsibly.

Re: Ben Long?
They play difficult positions, but when its not going their way, they need to tackle and chase like maniacs. At least bring defensive pressure.
Long's tackle should be a weapon, he hits as hard as Lenny Hayes used to. In all fairness, I don't reckon Long is 100%
