Quote: DaveO "We also wouldn't hear the end of it if he wasn't rock solid in defence either - even if he did score 5. Would we?

The comments on Goulding in this thread are pretty balanced. It's a pity the same kind of reasoned comments and keeping things in perspective aren't applied to Ainscough.

The pair of them have a lot in common IMO by which I mean both have been players who have done well (very well in fact at times) but for some reason seem to attract an undue amount of flak from certain quarters of the fans.

There is another parallel as well. Both were victims of Noble's obsession with senior players IMO. Goulding got dropped after we lost to Leeds when he was in fact very good in that game two season ago and virtually never featured again that season. Ainscough as we know got dropped after scoring four tries and didn't feature again before getting injured either.

Our ex-coach got a lot of stick form me on both occasions and maybe that is what it was - some people had to make up excuses to defend Noble so both Ainscough and Goulding got whatever faults they have blown out of proportion just to defend Noble. Well that's my theory and I am sticking to it!

Dave'"


Fully agree.

Quote: Cherry.Pie "Goulding has come up against Senior before when playing right centre and on every occasion has had a good game. '"



I was going to post the same myself. Some of Gouldings best games at right centre came against Leeds and Senior. I remember him not giving him a sniff at Headingley a couple of times and I remember him scoring a good try and beating Senior in a game at the JJB.

Like you said though he'd come up against Delaney who has had a good start to his Leeds career. I don't know a great deal about him but I wouldn't have major worries about Goulding coming up against him tbh. I think we look good enough at the moment to have the confidence to back lads like Goulding and O'Carroll to play against anyone. In the past I think they were looked at as weak links simply because they were young kids.

Quote: The pieman "Disagree that it was HH

1st was clearly Sam who came flying out of the line leaving a gap that I think I could have gone through. Pat did try to position phelps to take the inside man so he could take the ball carrier, but he didn't

2nd I thought was Goulding but could be wrong - but they bombed it

Thought Horne played pretty well and was the one most likely to break our line'"


It was Goulding the second time and fortunately they bombed the chance to score. It could have been a different game had they have scored there. Fortunately for us they didn't. They seemed to target Goulding and made a couple of breaks down that channel, but I don't think he can be soley to blame. I will have to watch the highlights. He had a good game.

It was a fantastic finish for his first try. I didn't think anyone could top it and then Roberts scored a beauty from an O'loughlin kick! We scored some fantastic tries last night.

I could be wrong but I didn't think they were necessarily targeting Goulding. If I'm not mistaken the second time you mention Hull had quite a big overlap as indeed they seemed to the first time and on a few more occasions afterwards suggesting the problem was further in field. The defensive line seemed to be drawn inwards towards Long which meant when Horne received the ball he went to his right and there was a quick overlap.

Throughout the game Richards was defending wide on the touchline man to man with his opponent whilst Sam Tomkins was straying inside looking to get more involved defensively leaving Goulding somewhere in between. I think we were a little bit short of some defensive organisation down that side.

Where were you sat? From the East Stand I couldn't see as clearly that side of the field so you could well be right. I will have to check out the highlights.

By all means though Darrell Goulding had an excellent game. If he keeps it up not only will he stay in the side he might well earn a long term contract. Keep it up Daz.

I think he has proven what I said pre-season....that he is an excellent squad member! He can come in and do a top class job when injury strikes, which also goes for a few of our other fringe players. We've not had that in quite some time.
