The lad isn't up to it, I've said it several times. He's a competent player, but he's a centre and needs to be making breaks, setting his winger up and so on. Oh yeah, and learn how to line up in defence!

having a good game today, scored a crackin' intercept try, think he will defo come back a better player with the experience he's getting.

He is on sky sports now playing for salford, he is having a decent game, scored a good try from an interception, he used his pace well, we dont often see him in open space for Wigan.

Hopefully his loan spell will do him good and he can come back ready to step up next season.

2 Goulding threads eh?

That's two for Goulding tonight.

He was a touch fortunate with that last one.

wilshire having a nightmare, Salford would be battering Hull if he werent playing

Sorry I started another one without realising this one was on.

My post was moved to here though.

He had good game tonight nice to see the lad been given a shot a first team rugby he is another confident based player them tries will do him the world of good.

Yes he had a good game for salford tonight which will do him a world of good for confidence, however his defensive frailties are still a concern, if he missed the ball for the intercept then hull were in for a stroll in at corner, he shot out of line into no-mans land repeatedly and was consistently out of position.

That being said, he did well to cover for wilshere a few times and looked quite sharp in attack, I'd like to see him get game time at centre as that is his position after all to help him develop there or what would be the point in this, isn't the loan deal meant to help him develop as a centre and player, how can he when he is played out of position.

I know his preferred position is centre but to tbh i think the lad is just called that he is playing first team rugby

Good player that lad

good quote but no matter how he plays out on loan. i honestly dont think
he's ever guna cut it with us. but best of luck to him where ever he ends up.
did cover for wilshire a few times.but he had no choice.bad day at the office
for wilshere.which was unusual for him.

Goulding had to cover for Tim Smith in the early games this season but Smith was such a liability he hadn't got a cat in hells chance of doing so. Result? Goulding gets dropped.

Dave

So did Smith.

Phil Clarke called it right last night, Goulding had three chances to win Wigan the game v Hull, and took the wrong options. That was why he was dropped.
