Sneyd spent one season at Cas, during which he played in a team that finished 4th in SL (one win from topping the table) and reached the cup final. I'm not sure what you are getting at.

Fabrication, not for the first time this evening. Weird.

Really? I thought he was intent on NRL & SOO.
In the club's defence, his knee was clearly gone. The mistake was Dykes, not so much Head (even though he had bags of talent).
The basic skills aren't there. Backing up, dummy runners, passing ability. None whatsoever. the rot started under agar and is being perpetuated under radford, albeit with a brief interlude with gentle in charge.. radford was a crap captain and is an even worse coach. I don't for a minute expect pearson to sack him and he'll reap what he's sown come the end of the season and if radford had anything about him he'd walk

Half a good season and subbed off in a challenge cup final because he was so ineffective

It was a while ago when he tweeted it but he seemed sincere. He's got his Hull shirts framed on his wall at home. Loved it at the club and was keen to stay. As you say there were obvious concerns about his fitness record.
I said before the season started that people were expecting too much of sneyd. His decision making has been poor, his passing isn't great and his kicking has been really disappointing. I'm sick of seeing him kick aimlessley early in the tackle count because he doesn't know what else to do. Thank fook I don't go to away games any more

Maybe, but you claimed he had played at Cas whilst we were a "bottom of the table" team, which could not be further from the truth.
I'm not saying he is a fantastic player. Indeed I said quite clearly he was not worth the money FC paid for him. However, he did not play for a "bottom of the table" team last year.
To be honest, the move to Hull was a step backwards for him.
