Warrington then decided to play him again although his performance against Castleford Tigers on 21 May 2016 proved unimpressive.

He played in the 2016 Super League Grand Final defeat by the Wigan Warriors at Old Trafford.

Lineham enjoyed another outstanding season for Hull in 2015, scoring 22 tries.

Enjoying a sparkling breakthrough season in 2013 in which he was named the Hull FC's Young Player of the Year and the Super League Albert Goldthorpe Rookie of the Year, Lineham is one of the most exciting young players to come through Hull’s ranks for some time. Earning a place in the Super League Dream Team alongside centre partner Ben Crooks last year, Lineham has been granted the No.5 shirt by new head coach and former mentor Lee Radford in 2014.

In 2013 Lineman was awarded the Albert Goldthorpe Rookie of the Year Medal.

Lineham signed for Hull F.C. in 2011. After a number of eye-catching performances in the Academy, Lineham made his first team début as a late substitute in the 32-18 derby win at Craven Park. His performance was rewarded with a starting spot in the next game at home to Salford Red Devils, where he scored two tries whilst making a notable contribution to another, in a Man of the match performance consolidating his status as one of the most promising young talents in super league.

Linehams first try for the Knights first team came on 2 April 2010 against Gateshead Thunder at Huntington Stadium when he ran the ball in from 50-metre. Knights boss James Ratcliffe joked: "I think I would’ve scored Tom’s try if I was 20 years younger."

Lineham then went to York College in 2008 to study for his A-Levels, this is when he first started playing rugby league for the College's Rugby Development Centre, originally coached by the late Paul Higgins. Once again Lineham excelled for the team scoring 15 tries in 7 appearances, earning a trial with the Knights. Lineham played two trial games with the Knights reserve grade and subsequently was offered an 18-month contract with the Knights in 2009. Lineham has signed a further 1-year contract at the Knights for the season 2011 season where the Knights will be playing in the championship after last seasons promotion. Hull F.C. were believed to have approached Lineham with an offer but no contract was agreed due to Linehamneeding anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) knee reconstruction leaving in him sidelined for 9 months.

Lineham joined York RUFC under 15s in September 2006 as a raw young talent with excellent speed and strength. He quickly became a regular in the York team, going on to represent North Yorkshire that same season. Lineham's second season with York was an even better one than his first, he was York's top tryscorer at the end of the season. Lineham really got heads turning and people talking about him and his performances, which led to a Yorkshire call up at blindside-flanker part way through the 2007-2008 season.
