Had to come at some point, but what a huge loss on the pitch. Thank you Gareth for 4 wonderful years, you're one of the game's greats. I, like you, would be over the moon to see you lift both trophies by the end of the season.

vexed off,purely selfish reasons,think he could of done another year,was awesome last week at Saints and if he plays until the end of the season,wouldn't back against us doing the double.
Absolute privilege to watch one of the greats of the modern era. Thanks for the last few years Gaz and here's to the next few! I'm sure you'll have just as big an impact off the field in the continued success of Hull FC

Sad he is not going to be our rock on the field next year but everyone's playing time has to come to an end delighted he is staying with us in a great role where he has a lot of potential, he is very respected throughout the game even in Australia and I'm sure he can bring in players and sell the club while managing cap issues and helping the coaching staff and current players Masterstroke by the club again hope we can end his career on the biggest stage

Gutted, thought he could do one more year, but he will know when he is ready to retire, outstanding signing and without him we wouldn't have seen the club improve and win the cup last year.
Glad he is staying at the club.
Let's hope we can give him at least one more trophy.
Chance for him to go out at the very top with at least one trophy. No reason why he can't lead us to the double and go down in history as one of, if not the greatest Hull FC captain.
