After watching the latest installment on Hull FC TV gotta say the Mark, Hame and Longy are looking very mean at the beginning of the vid, lol.
But back to the point of the post, is it me or does Longys eye look a whole lot better compared to previous interviews recently.
Anyway here's hoping his eye is well on the road to recovery and that his vision is as sharp as it ever was playing for saints!

think he was having / has had a minor op to help it

It does look much better in that video although it was recorded indoors of course. It's looked bad when Longy has been photograped or filmed outdoors in bright light when the other eye closes more.

I'm sure he is fine though, he came back well at the end of the season for Saints and Hull's medical staff will be assessing him.

I thought it looked alot better aswell , the start of that vid is awesome aswell

there's pictures of them training on the hull daily mail website in daylight and he hasn't got shades on. I presumed that meant he was a lot better

Thought the same watching it hopefully things returning to normal for him.

Was chatting to Longy this morning asked him the same question Re - His Eye, He told me he's getting some special sport glasses to wear during game.. Here we go......................

Edgar Davids played football in glasses for years

There were penalties given in SL last year for hair pulling. Do we think the likes of Mathers/Bailey/Cockayne would be able to resist leaving his eyeware alone?

How can they wear glasses in a game of RL? Football i can see but in rl there is a lot more contact and glasses would be off quickly.

Unless they are going to be contacts of some sort?

Contacts would be pointless. The problem wasn't his eyesight (IIRC Davids has glaucoma), it was/is Long's ability to close his eye.

But how would glasses help? I thought the problem was that his eye dries out due to not getting the fuild it needs. Are they going to put an eye washer on the inside of the lens

Guess it would be more to stop him getting prodded in it if it doesnt close properly.

FWIW i think Longy may have been winding someone up about glasses.

Are you sure he wasn't pulling your leg? Remember the Billy Connelly bit about 'prescription windscreens' for cars.

I can't see the RFL approving any head gear with plastic edges. They would have to be made from the same stuff as headguards.

Kareem Adbul Jalongy anyone?

bl00dy el, cause i was taking the pee, how big were them glasses??.

Although in all seriousness Marcus Hahnemann (Wolves goalkeeper) was wearing some yellow tinted contact lenses yesterday which are supposed to act as sun glasses.

Its actually sunglasses during day games because he cant close his eye to the bright light. If its the type with an elastic cord it could work, especially as he doesn't get tackled all that often.

He wasn't wearing them at training the other day in the daylight and managed ok. I think the minor op rectified most of the problem.

Not saying he will need to wear them I was just clearing up what he may have needed them for. As we have very few Sunday afternoon games next season I doubt it would be a problem anyway TBH.

Nice to see that O'Meley has shaved off his hair too. I didn't think he looked too aggressive with it grown!
