Super League’s top 10 points scorers as Salford Red Devils star overtakes Sean Long
Marc Sneyd is a Warrington player.
Salford Red Devils sharpshooter Marc Sneyd has climbed above St Helens legend Sean Long in Super League’s all-time points scorers list.
Sneyd was at his brilliant best on Saturday afternoon as he helped the Red Devils hammer Hull FC 58-4 at the MKM Stadium in the penultimate round of the regular Super League season.
It is a result that sees Paul Rowley’s side secure their place in the end of season play-offs, with the Red Devils sat fourth in the Super League table at the time of writing.
And it was another milestone-hitting afternoon for Sneyd, who will no doubt be there or thereabouts amongst the leaders in the Steve Prescott Man of Steel rankings.

Sneyd kicked nine goals in Salford’s 10-try rout of Hull, racking up a personal tally of 18 points, which sees him overtake Great Britain icon Long in eighth place in the list of Super League‘s all-time scorers: and he is already creeping up on Warrington Wolves legend Lee Briers who is in seventh.
Here’s the list of the top 10 all-time Super League points scorers:
- Kevin Sinfield (3,443)
- Danny Brough (2,460)
- Paul Deacon (2,413)
- Andy Farrell (2,376)
- Pat Richards (2,284)
- Danny Tickle (2,261)
- Lee Briers (2,232)
- Marc Sneyd (2,214)
- Sean Long (2,200)
- Iestyn Harris (1,674)
As well as climbing up Super League’s all-time try scoring charts, Sneyd also reached the proud milestone of surpassing 1,000 Super League goals.
The Oldham-born playmaker has kicked 347 for Salford (2010-2013, 2022-2024), 558 for Hull FC (2015-2021) and 100 for Castleford Tigers (2014, loan).
It has been a fine season for Sneyd and the Red Devils, who many were tipping to finish outside of the play-offs before a ball was kicked. As they seemingly always do, the Red Devils have defied the odds and have played some tremendous rugby in 2024: and their trajectory continues as they eye a return to Old Trafford for the first time since their maiden Grand Final appearance in 2019.
Next up for Salford is a trip to the Brick Community Stadium to take on reigning champions Wigan Warriors on Thursday: but they can travel to Wigan without the added pressure of having to win, with their play-off place already secured and in the bag.
