Longy: The Biography

By Sean Long and Nick Appleyard

Book Overview

Sean Long is Super League's No 1. bad boy, and when it comes to off-the-pitch madness, no one comes close. Here, the flamboyant St. Helens superstar tells his hilarious, shocking, and explosive life story--packed with amazing tales of booze, brawls, sex, and scandal. The only player to win the Lance Todd Trophy three times tells the inside story of that bet against his own team and exposes secrets that will shock the rugby league establishment to its core. In his own words, he describes with startling honesty the hellraising experiences of his rag-to-riches journey. But it isn't all about his wild reputation--Long has also had an incredible rugby league career, winning every major honor in the game at club level as well as notching up 15 caps for Great Britain and another five for the England side. He has twice set the Super League record for the most points scored in a season, with 284 in 1999 and a staggering 352 in 2000. Not just for rugby league fans, this book is a must-read for anyone with a taste for life on the wild side.
