Long contract for someone still unproven. Hope we aren't paying him too much.

Looks fantastic defensively, has shown glimpses offensively but needs to work on having more of an impact on games going forward, but as has been said, he is still very young, glad to have him signed up for 5 years.

Excellent news, potential to develop into a decent full back . Personally I think that's his best position .

Pffft..done nothing to impress on attack. Useless in fact. Jack Walker much more impressive FB and should be the more valued.

His attacking game should be based on linking in attack as he's way too small to play the same way as Hardaker did for Leeds. I'm genuinely surprised he isn't used as the extra link more often, especially with us effectively playing with only one passing halfback.

Never seen him once break the line, pretty decent defence though. But to be a good modern full back he needs better offense skills.

May be we should loan him to Cas to improve his offensive game

That`s just how he should play BR.
Let him play a similar role to the one Brent Webb played and to how Hardaker is playing now.
Was McDermott coaching us in the Brent Webb era?

I think his offensive game will develop. Seeing him in the academy there was no question of his attacking abilities but more of his defensive. He seems to have answered them for me now. He does need to now work on his attacking game but I think it is as much to do with Leeds tactics rather than him not having the ability. He isn't often the focal point of a planned move. He is at a great level for 20 years of age and I'm sure will develop into an all around great player.

From an outsider, I saw a lot of videos of Goulding in his academy days and his attacking prowess was his major impact. (forgive me if thats wrong though) I see a lot of people talking about his defence and not getting involved i attack. Rather than him not getting involved is it more the way McDermott is asking his full back to play? Looking at how hardaker is playing now he didnt show much of the passing game at your place. Happy for Goulding got backed with the number 1 shirt seems a good character to have about the place and will have the club at heart

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
