Quote: cherrydevil "This is once again largely your opinion though which you seem to dress up as fact. I suppose though if you repeat something often enough people may believe it and it does tend to become fact on these boards. You constantly drop little jibes or negatives in about Goulding like it somehow makes Pryce a better player. Why dont you compare him to Richards or Roberts? If Pryce is so good why has he been stuck in the u20s most of the year? Surely your coach knows the players better than anyone and is best placed to judge and up to now he has been choosing Goulding. It is therefore safe to say that he rates Goulding higher. Didnt Ainscough even get recalled before Pryce got a game? It doesnt seem that your coach rates Pryce too highly and only picked him as a last resort.
If Goulding was as bad as you say and at fault as much as you make out wouldnt he have been dropped in the last few weeks? There certainly wasnt anything wrong with Goulding's defence or positioning at Salford and from what I have seen of Wigan this year there hasnt been any there too, if there had he wouldnt have played the games he has. Even some of your fellow fans are saying you are wrong blaming Goulding for the tries you have and one poster says he has been at fault for only one. I have seen Pryce be at fault for at least one in the game against Huddersfield so there is no difference there. You just totally ignore the facts and anything that may not suit your argument. As a result it really is difficult to take your comparison seriously when you are obviously so biased. Has Goulding not given you his autograph or something as you really seem to have something against him?
I have already posted a whole range of reasons why teams may attack one side more than another and why there may be more tries on one side of the field, you just seem to be obsessed with taking one point in isolation, whilst ignoring the others, as you think you can argue against it and get out of the stupid posts that you have made previously. Looking at Wigan they attack far more down the left than the right, Salford do too, as do Leeds amongst others. It happens for a variety of reasons, regardless of opposition, and there is not a one size that fits all answer. What you completely fail to realise is that it is a team game and not all tries that are scored on the opposite side of the field are automatically that wingers fault, even if it is outside him, no matter how much you want them to be to suit your argument. Indeed more often than not it is the fault of those inside him.'"
Although i do not expect it it would be good of you to come on put your hand up and admit you were wrong given the selection on the flanks today.
