Sean Long Rugby player

Sean Long (born 24 September 1976 in Wigan) is an English former professional rugby league and current rugby union footballer with Preston Grasshoppers. Long is seen by many as one of the finest scrum halves of his generation. Off field activities have often caused controversy in Sean's career. He has played for Wigan, Widnes and Hull but is best known for playing for St Helens in the Super League. Internationally he has represented England, and Great Britain, at Halfback. Although primarily a Scrum-half he has also played many games at Stand-off. Long has gained many club honours and has won three Lance Todd Trophies for man-of-the-match performances in the Challenge Cup final after St. Helens won the trophy in the 2001, 2004 and 2006 finals.
