People who expect an 18 year old kid to be a superstar. Clueless.

No errors, or missed tackles according to the stats.

More tackles, more metres, more tackle breaks and as many clean breaks as Quinlan too. Given Quinlan has played 25 NRL matches and maybe 10 Super League matches, Golding compares pretty well.

I think we'll really see Golding progress in the next 12 months. I've seen him out and about a few times, and although he's scrawny he has a decent frame, so I think has he develops, and adds some timber he'll be a very good player. I think the club view him more as a halfback in the long term, but whatever position he ends up playing all the raw materials are there for a very good player IMO.

Except he won't, will he? He's never going to displace the back 3, or Handley who's already proven himself a much better prospect. He's not going to get ahead of Sutcliffe (or Lilley, who actually is a halfback) or whoever we sign to cover the transition period between McGuire/Burrow and Lilley/Sutcliffe.

So when in a couple of years we have to decide between letting him go or letting Ash Handley go, it'll be Golding.

Might as well get rid now and save ourselves the trouble.

I must admit your postings are thought provoking to say the least.
I had to read your comment about ' get rid now and save ourselves the trouble ' twice as it seems so bizarre.
Golding has a lot of potential, he is work in progress, he is still a kid learning his trade.

Knows the game well this guy clearly :-S

Re: Liability Golding : Sat Sep 05, 2015 12:32 pm  

Imagine getting so worked up over the performance of an kid in what, his third game in first grade?

He needs work, and a lot more meat on his bones, but there is some talent there that needs nurturing.

Re: Liability Golding : Sat Sep 05, 2015 12:42 pm  

Worlds Apart does seem to have a serious beef with Golding that is extraordinarily intense. Way over the top for a kid with limited first team time. At this stage he is a prospect, promising or not depending on your point of view, but hardly deserving of the vitriol that WA piles on him. Last night I put it down to an alcohol fuelled rage but WA is still banging the drum this afternoon.

Come on Worlds apart what's the real beef here?
