London Broncos confirm Long exit

London Broncos have confirmed the departure of Sean Long, saying his performances “did not meet the professional levels expected”.

Long, 37, joined the club earlier this year to assist Tony Rea, but revealed on his Twitter page last week that he had left The Hive.

A Broncos statement said: “The London Broncos would like to clarify the situation concerning Sean Long.

“Unfortunately, Sean’s performances as an assistant coach did not meet the professional levels expected at the club. As a result his position as full time assistant is no longer continuing. 

“Whilst this decision had to be made by the club, we do wish Sean the best for the future.”

The Broncos have conceded 108 points in their opening two Super League games, defeats against Widnes and Salford.
