Mistakes are an absolute no-no for a youngster in the team, highlighted even further at fullback.



I would agree his more conservative play is indeed coached and is an effort similar to the rest of the team of safety first, or as safe as it can be for Leeds.....

I don't feel optimistic he can be the long term fullback that is needed.

We all know how many tries he has saved but that is one of his main jobs.

We can't be waiting for years for his offensive game to get better, we want to be trying to win things now !!

If has no contribution in attack it's going to limit our chances of being successful.

were talking about Ashton Golding, don't know who this Goulding kid is. is he related to bobby

good news that we are tying up young players, cracking player, people getting on his case , he is 20 years old debuted at 18 and is now a regular and developing superbly, everyone praised his attack , but criticized his defense, but now its the other way around, he has obviously worked very hard on that part of his game, and i am sure his attacking skills will improve season on season. of course even if they don't who cares. some of the est full backs in my living memory were not great attacking players but were the best at being what they were the last line of defense. Keith Mumby Steve Hampson Gary Jack. etr. this modern fad of playing a half at fullback will eventually pass somewhat.



however he is a good attacking player and it will come through. but give the kid a chance this is is first year as first choice fullback.

The only recognised first choice / fit full back in the league who has yet to cross the whitewash , just 1 try assist too.

and yet you still felt the need to post about him on the rhinos forum

Yeah , not broken any rules have I?

Well he's obviously utter crap then and should be offloaded and thrown on the scrap heap at 20

as a Cas fan he's clearly an expert on intergrating academy graduates into first team football

Indeed. Took particular pleasure when Tom Holmes went the distance at the weekend.





Obviously wouldn't bin Golding off but a 5 year deal seems excessive for an okay full back.

Apologies must have auto corrected

I rest my case. Cas (as with Hardaker) is his future for making him complete after the regressive McDermott touch.



Jack Walker is the Leeds ready improved replacement.(as long as McDermott is gone of course)
