Interesting to see how this one goes!

Had a bit of a fall out with Leeds last year but he was their captain and he won them the Cup last year.

Welcome!
As good as we could have managed with who is available I think. Presumably we'll be targetting a longer term replacement for 2023.

Good business with a 1 year deal and probably an option to extend subject to how many games he plays re his injury record. Sneyds played a big integral part in the cup successes but few could argue that’s it’s probably the best for both him and club to move on.

Hopefully Gale can stay fit and we will see an improvement in our attack with his running and short kicking game.

AP & BH have certainly made big changes and credit to them.

Gale has signed for Hull on a 2 year deal.

One year with another in the club's favour, it appears. Makes sense.

People wanted Sneyd moving on and we have done just that
Interesting to see how Gale goes injury and attitude wise but I'm excited to see hopefully a new dimension to our attacking structure and I like the changes to our squad.

Credit to AP and BH for the shake up on going at the club, we'd been to stagnant for too long

Taken from Hulls press release

“ 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.”

Most likely a 1 year deal with extension pending amount of games played due to his record over the last few seasons.

That's highly unlikely IMO.

Gale had one year left at Leeds on marquee money. it's the extra year that has persuaded him. Any option will be in his favour.

Why would it be in his favour? That makes no sense.

Gale was clearly not going to get regular game time at Leeds.
Who knows what has been said and done at the Rhino's and if they are paying some of his marquee money.

Good signing, it has to give us more attacking options. I think we got used to Mark and just accepted the same stuff from him as all his kicking was so good. But his attacking stuff wasn’t great.
He didn’t take the line on enough for me, and in 7 years how many clean breaks did he make ?
We became too easy to read I think.
I’m Looking forward to some variation from Gale at the play the ball, and in the red zone.
I’m hoping we’ll see more of us running which is what I love us to do.
Just to a have that greater threat at pivot is enough for me to look forward to the new season.

Yes of course it will.

September 2022:

Luke Gale: "Hi Adam, I'm triggering the second year of my contract"

Adam Pearson: "Hi Luke, well I'm not sure to be honest, we were going to see what other options are out there but if you insist".

Mentioned on another thread we should be more direct with Gale and Lovodua instead of Sneyd and Houghton.

Gale has a more rounded game than Sneyd, I just hope he plays most of the season.

It's so helpful of our friends from the dark side to explain the deal for us
