SW said at the press conf that Goulding had "turned his ankle".
Wasn't asked anything further about the extent of the injury.

Goulding would be a massive miss. Hopefully he'll be ok.

Pre-injury Pat Richards would have. He's not the same player that won the MOS.

Even still, he'd have scored alot of the chances that Gelling has bombed. Even in his last game agaisnt Hull he scored 2 tries that I doubt Gelling would have. He might not be 2010 Pat be he certainly isn't finished.

Made one mistake that cost us but other than that I thought he did ok. His knock on in the first half was more the fault of Farrell for passing a ball that he shouldn't have passed.

It was a perfect pass. There are no excuses for dropping it.

I don't get everyone hate of gelling yes he bombed a try but don't see a 6 page thread slating faz for bombing the try were he made the break

Yes gelling ain't a winger or as more important to some a WIGANER but give him a chance
donnt remember pat ripping up trees in his first year

Against widnes I had some stupid woman slating him behind me at any oppertunity at one point the ball got swung fromright to left carmont didn't catch the ball and rolled forward to gelling who knocked it forward picking it up and it was him who got the abuse
Next set carmont knocked on AGAIN and nothing said and that says it all to me

Did you go to Hull? I'm interested because that day he looked refreshed. He started the season slowly and seemed to be carrying niggles but after a few weeks rest he was exceptional that day and looked back in the old grove. To say he got his knee injury at the wrong time would be an understatement.

The thing with Richards is even when playing with those niggles he's all class but when he plays at 100% he's simply brilliant. He makes difficult things look effortless.

I wouldn't expect a guy who is practically over the line to throw a cut out pass to me and maybe Gelling didn't either. Yes he SHOULD have caught it but Faz is as much to blame for bombing the try because he should have just put the ball over the line

Nobody is giving Gelling credit for his knock down that saved a certain try in the second half.

Why?

We need a scapegoat!!!

Selective memory I think mate

I've stuck with Lauaki as my scapegoat for most of the season but, much to my annoyance, he's quite good so I'm struggling to justify it. I may switch to Gelling.

I'll see how this young fullback pans out first though before I do switch.

Eric is still mine

I admire your dedication.
