100K + Gale for Trueman?

Not for me.
He’s 33, had a major injury.
Doesn’t look anywhere as good as when he was with us.
He won’t get any better.

Just my opinion.

I'm wi thi Old Lass. He just hasn't performed anywhere near the way he did prior to his injuries at Cas and whilst we do seem desperate for more cover in the halves, I don't think we're that desperate.

I’m with you OCL - Yes, we desperately need an experienced controlling half but Gale ain’t it for me.

He’s now been stood down as captain.
Must be a bad one.

When he recently said that he had done all he could at Cas, why did it take him two years of being paid for doing very little to make up his mind?

Bit of a statement here.

Leeds Rhinos have confirmed that Luke Gale has been stood down as captain of the club for behaviours not aligned to team trademarks.
Gale will be available for selection for Thursday’s Betfred Super League clash at Hull FC and the club now see this matter as closed.
The England international commented, “I would like to apologise to everyone connected to the club for my behaviour, which fell below the standards expected of our team. I will be making sure I give my absolute best every day to help the team achieve our goal this season.”

Because the club hadn't recieved a massive offer from his boyhood club at that time . No idea why people think players purposely get injured to get paid for nothing . He did us well and we got a nice chunk of cash for him . Dont get the bitterness...

Nor me. I wish he had been in our side at Wembley.
I think he would have been a massive asset when the momentum started changing.

I’m not bitter about Gale leaving and have no problem about him taking the offer. Didn’t want him to leave either. Just commenting on his recent interview when he said that he left because he had done all he could at Cas. Your clarification was of course the real reason, He was effectively finished at Cas in 2017.

And in all honesty, his hair is as big a issue for me as the rest of him - zilch!
