Ben Long Out for 10 weeks
Ben Long has a fractured foot it was just reported on SEN and will be out for 10 weeks
As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”
St Kilda - At least we have a Crest!

Re: Ben Long Out for 10 weeks
This was clearly caused by kicking ball too straight.
On the plus side, we shouldn't have any other similar injuries.

Re: Ben Long Out for 10 weeks
You would have to be joking.
One of the few who can hold his head high on his effort and conversion over the last few weeks.
Hell season.
Terrible news.

Re: Ben Long Out for 10 weeks
I reckon that curse that asshole in the NT put on the Saints when he pointed the bone at us has never been lifted.
I would be getting a few of Ben's mates from the top end to hold a couple of smoking ceremonies to lift the curse.
And I'm not kidding.

Wishing Ben a speedy recovery.

Re: Ben Long Out for 10 weeks
Season looked shot after the pre season games , so many wouldn't have it.
some tough decisions need to made at the end of the year.. we can't squander these picks again...we will be close to the spoon.

Re: Ben Long Out for 10 weeks
It's frustrating that he is only on 11 games and only played 4 last year whilst we pumped 18 stinkers into mav... long is getting better with every match and could be halfway to 50 now if we were serious about developing our next finals side.
