Long departs Tri-Nations tour amid betting rumours
14th Nov 2006, 01:10 GMT
Sean Long is on his way home from Great Britain's Tri-Nations tour, with the team management adamantly denying it is for disciplinary reasons. Long caught a flight out of Sydney late yesterday afternoon, with the Lions coach, Brian Noble, insisting he had left at his own request for personal reasons. Long's wife, Claire, is in the latter stages of pregnancy, although that was not seen as a problem earlier in the trip.
