Long to join circle and express view (5)

I believe the answer is:

opine

(Other definitions for opine that I've seen before include "Say what one thinks" , "Suppose" , "State as one's belief" , "Express one's opinion openly" , "Express a point of view" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Telegraph.
