I am not a big fan, but you are totally correct there, he is Leeds through and through, and passionate about it.



That said, his greatest quality is the cheer leading, because he is just too weak to be a starting player, or for that matter utilise precious cap space. Very good broken field runner on the pitch, but that’s where the positives end.

Drivel.

Well you got me with another there!

Can`t remember the last time I was at Odsal.

Thinking back I seem to remember big Les had fire in his eyes though.

He clearly hadn't been to the white rose...

We would be fools to let Ash Golding leave, at Elland Rd against the tigers, playing hooker he was the reason for the comeback, he got the pack moving forward when we was being hammered. The lad can tackle he is not injury prone like a lot of others in the team, he has pace and can catch the high ball, those on here who simply believe that he is not good enough just look at what we have. As much as I like JW he has neither the size or the speed to make the full back his own position, he is far too injury prone, I do however hope JW does prove me wrong. You could have had the best full back in the world playing for us last year and he would have had a terrible year playing behind a defence that was non existence. If you note all the good full backs don't have to tackle much, they have a great defence in front of them, we had a shocking defence last year. If JW becomes full back, I hope he has a decent defence in front of him, if not no doubt everyone will be on his back. Anywhere, at Stanningley ARLFC, it was being muted that Wakefield have been speaking to him, I just hope we don't lose a quality player who can play a number of positions without him being given a fair crack of the whip been able to play behind a quality defence. I've heard some rubbish on here by the comments seeing him at the White Rose with no fire in his eyes makes me laugh.

I once saw "big" Joe Vangana buying trainers at the white rose with his Mrs, no fire in the eyes to report but he did keep calling me Bro.



Lovely man.

Brilliant - proper lol reading this in a restaurant!!! I can beat that though, queuing at 2 in the morning outside toysrus for Po!! It’s was bloody cold and needed some of that fire they’re on about!!!

You must have been asleep for the first half hour of that game. Golding was the very reason we were so far behind, with his poor positioning and couldn't catch the high ball. It was the introduction of Walker from the bench that set about the comeback, who was very good. To be fair you are correct on the introduction at hooker later, and the impact that had, but the comeback was already moving.



Walker is for more physical than Golding. Look at the yardage in contact and you will see every single time Walker makes progress, where in the majority of times Golding is put back. They may not look that way stood there, but in actual contact it is clear. That physicality on boxing day appeared to have moved on a step further with the difference.

JW is every bit our no1 FB & he's earned it.

I do hope Golding stays & id happily put him on the wing before L.Briscoe.

Wrt 9 for me if Parcell or Dwyer are not playing that spot has to go to Corey Johnson it's the right time to start intergrating him into the starting 17 especially Parcell in his last year & rumoured to be homeward bound.

I think both are quality young players and it would a shame if Golding left he is a quality player that we want on the bus but we need to find him the correct seat

when Golding came out I took an instant dislike to him as you had him kicking for you and came over as over exaggerating but I suppose that's his way of kicking,

since being displaced by Walker who I do rate I have now seen him a different light, he seems stronger player, has he played at stand off at all

I would also persevere with Sutcliffe in the
