Liability Golding : Fri Sep 04, 2015 9:41 pm  

As usual, utter gash from the Afro'd wonder tonight. Nonexistent positioning, missed tackles all over the shop, couldn't catch the kickoff or call for a high ball. He offers us f**k all and the sooner he's shipped off to Hunslet on a permanent basis the better. At least the likes of Mulhern, Handley, Robbie Ward etc. have either been steady or actively put their hands up and demanded to be picked. Every time Golding has played he's looked like someone who's going straight back to the 19s as soon as we have a first teamer fit.

Will never be make it, let's cut our losses and find someone decent.

I think your talking out of your bottom mate.

He got more confident as the game went on, and looked very good running the ball. I agree in a lot of aspects he looked out of his depth, but to say he is utter gash is just nonsense.

I am sure had we moved him up to halfback and put Moon to fullback, the result may have been different. He would have give us good options I the halves.

Re: Liability Golding : Fri Sep 04, 2015 9:47 pm  

He occasionally caught the ball, and sometimes even got it back to where it landed before getting tackled. Shocking all round. Jogging back to take ball that was going in-goal despite saints defenders bearing down on him. No confidence to take the ball into contact with pace. Getting the ball in the line and having no bloody clue what to do with it.

If he's a half back, he should play at half back. There is no way he will ever be a fullback in Super League.

Strange thread this.

Re: Liability Golding : Fri Sep 04, 2015 9:50 pm  

Blimey....some people can be very blinkered. Thought he made a couple of good last line of defence tackles (alright he's no Hardaker, but then nobody in SL is either); he seems to have a decent sidestep on him and nearly scored but for Quinlan's tackle. He seemed to grow in confidence and didn't do anywhere near "a Dixon". Thought he really did okay.

Re: Liability Golding : Fri Sep 04, 2015 9:55 pm  

Dixon at least looked like he might create something - one of the few Hull KR players last weekend who did. Golding looked like he'd do nothing except screw up.

He was abysmal against Wire, had to be moved to the wing against Salford he was so bad, was anonymous against Hull and gash again tonight.

Being an academy lad doesn't get you a free pass on being a poop player. I'd rather re-sign Lee Smith than keep Golding.

Re: Liability Golding : Fri Sep 04, 2015 9:58 pm  

Re the Jones try,I thought he made a decent fist of it in trying to stop him grounding the ball;couldn't see Jones convincingly ground the ball from any angle.

We have got too used to having Hardaker at fb, he's so far above every other fb we aren't used to seeing poor kick returns, the fb caught in goal or the held up going against us

Point by Point rebuttal or straight to the point?

Bullsh1t

Young lad, big game, key position, stood up and did his job.

This happens to Hardaker too - he is not immune.
