Sneyd is a dead set FC legend. 2 Lance Todds, 4 MoMs in 2 stunning cup campaigns and brilliant goal kicker. We would not have won at Wembley, never mind go back to back there, without him. No doubt his effectiveness has been reduced over more recent seasons, but we will really miss his goal kicking. Not a Gale fan but a former Man of Steel..could be worse but definitely concerns over his injury record. Still some ins and outs to come..

Gale is a very good goal kicker
I would also say his short kicking to the in goal for possible tries and repeat set from drop out under the posts is better than Sneyd

With Connor and Reynolds already in place now joined by Evans and Gale we must be the most sh#thousery team in the league.

It's a 2 year deal

He brings a more direct approach for sure. Injury record and age more the concerns for me.

Hull FC have confirmed the signing of England international and former Man of Steel winner Luke Gale for the 2022 campaign!

The experienced half back joins the club on an initial one-year deal from Leeds Rhinos, who he captained to Challenge Cup success in 2020.

Yes i understand that and Gale would not have been my choice but we have to admit there are not many UK half backs out there.
My concern is Reynolds.Still not convinced we will see him back
What it looks like is we will be in the market for two new half backs in 2023
